The Earth Resources Experiment Package (EREP) which will be flown on the Skylab in 1973 is discussed. The EREP facility includes a multispectral photographic facility (2 camera system), an infrared spectrometer, a multispectral scanner, a microwave radiometer/scatterometer and altimeter, and an L-band radiometer. It also includes a control and display panel, a viewfinder tracking system, and a 28-track magnetic tape recorder. The tasks performed by the crew in the experiment are examined.
