Applying the same LANDSAT-1 data to three substantially different image processing systems, a snow mapping task was performed. LARSYS Ver.3, STANSORT-2, and General Electric Image-100 did all the jobs of detecting the snowline in forested mountainous terrain, and to determine the snowcovered area. While the control and accuracy achieved with LARSYS is remarkable, time and effort to perform the processing favor the systems STANSORT and Image-100. The experiences and results demonstrate the need for a fast interactive system for operational snowmapping with multispectral satellite data.
