Summary:Analysis and interpretation of multi-spectral images from aircraft and space platforms is finally advancing out of the empirical stage and is attaining a solid quantitative foundation. This logical evolution is made possible by wider acceptance and use of digital Image-processing techniques and a better understanding of the in situ spectral-reflectance characteristics of earth materials.
