Surveys covering the areas of forestry, agriculture, hydrology, oceanography, geology, and geography are inculude. Aerials surveys equipped for nonphotographic remote sensing and aircraft flights synchronized with satellite observations to provide correlated data are discussed. Photographs are shown to illustrate preliminary results from several of the test sites. (Author)
