The objective of this study was to determine if the quality of the ERTS imagery could be improved by averaging successive passes over the same physical area.
The U.S.G.S. designated five passes over two areas of study: Washington, D. C. and Phoenix, Ariz., with the requirement that optimized imagery be derived directly from the EROS Data Center Bulk CCT's. The Mead system goes directly from the Bulk CCT's to hard-copy print-out, thereby by-passing any intermediate electronic, electro-optical, or photographic processes which may lead to image deterioration.

A major factor contributing to the utility of LANDSAT data is the repetitive coverage of each spot on the earth's surface within the sensor's field of view at least once every 18 days. This repeat coverage makes possible: studies of crop growth: monitoring urban development and land use: and predicting water runoff from melting ice and snow, just to name a few examples. Of central importance to investigators performing these studies is the requirement that imagery and/or image data on computer compatible tapes (CCT's) register to a fraction of a pixel. This paper describes the application of all digital processing …

Section 208 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972 provided the opportunity and funding to fight water pollution through the use of regional water quality planning. A common requirement of the 208 program is to develop a capability of predicting water quality in the rivers and lakes resulting from existing and potential land-use policies. To achieve this capability, the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana (OKI) Regional Council of Governments is developing a deterministic model capable of predicting sediment and nutrient flow into the waterways. An essential input to OKI's model is an accurate map of land use within the watersheds. This …
