The Role Of Computer Networks In Remote Sensing Data Analysis, P. H. Swain, T. L. Philips, J. C. Lindenlaub

LARS Technical Reports

It has been hypothesized that computer networks can be used to make data processing facilities available to the remote sensing community both quickly and effectively. An experiment to test this hypothesis is being conducted by the Laboratory for Applications of Remote Sensing at Purdue University, with the participation of potential users at several remote sites. Initial indications have been highly favorable, although final evaluation awaits further experience and the accumulation of usage data.

Determining Density Of Maize Canopy: Ii. Airborne Multispectral Scanner Data, E. R. Stoner, M. F. Baumgardner, J. E. Cipra

LARS Technical Reports

Multispectral scanner data were collected in two flights over a light colored soil background cover plot at an altitude of 305 m. Energy in eleven reflective wavelength bands from 0.45 to 2.6 µm was recorded by the scanner. Four growth stages of maize (Zea mays L.) were present at the time of each over flight, giving a wide range of canopy densities for each flight date. Leaf area index measurements were taken from twelve subplots at the time of each overflight, and were used as a measure of canopy density.

Ratio techniques were used to relate uncalibrated scanner response to …

Data Processing Ii: Advancements In Large-Scale Data Processing Systems For Remote Sensing, David Landgrebe

LARS Technical Reports

In the preceding paper, Dr. Swain described some of the research activities in Data Analysis techniques carried out at LARS/Purdue this past year. This paper continues by summarizing some results obtained from additional data processing research tasks now under study there. Time and space do not permit details. Full descriptions of these projects are reported in LARS reports and in papers in the open literature.

These studies fall into three categories: (1) an examination of the suitability of several sensor types with regard to producing data required for multispectral machine analysis; (2) various types of data preprocessing necessary to prepare …

Data Handling And Analysis For The 1971 Corn Blight Watch Experiment, P. E. Anuta, T. L. Philips, D. A. Landgrebe

LARS Technical Reports

In the summer of 1971 the Laboratory for Applications of Remote Sensing at Purdue University conducted a pioneering experiment in the application of remote sensing technology to a large scale earth resource surveillance problem. In 1970 a plant disease called the Southern Corn Leaf Blight infected large areas of corn production in the United States and it is estimated that total national corn production pas reduced by 15% due to this disease. In the winter of 1970, an experiment was designed in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, NASA, and the University of Michigan Institute of Science and Technology's …

Measurement Of Available Soil Moisture, F. V. Schultz

LARS Technical Reports

The following pages are the author's notes taken during 1969 and are devoted, in the main, to a discussion of methods for measuring the resistivity of soil. While this is not a satisfactory method for measuring soil moisture, the material was assembled before its shortcomings were appreciated and is documented here as a background to the study of soil moisture measurement as a function of depth. This material is derived from source material and has been printed to have this information available. It does not reflect the research and literature since that time, nor the present thinking of the author.

The Use Of Social Media By Terrorists, Jan Balk, Benjamin Clarke, Charles Stembler

Purdue Policy Research Institute (PPRI) Student Policy Briefs

With the rise of digital technology, particularly social media, terrorist groups have gained a valuable new tool for furthering their goals. Terrorist propaganda, for the purposes of this brief, is defined as any video, picture, post, or any other form of media posted to the internet to further the cause of the terrorist organization, such as recruitment or communication with followers around the world. The manipulation of technology by non-state actors is not a new phenomenon; however, social media and other new digital technologies have proven a valuable resource for many terrorist organizations. Not only have terrorist groups been adept …
