Preliminary results of a past LANDSAT D advanced concept evaluation study to forecast and identify key technologies required for earth resources satellite systems in the 1985 to 2000 time period are presented. Mission categories discussed include agriculture, range management, forestry, geological resources, land use, water resources, environmental quality, and disaster assessment. Sensor and system concepts are described for a passive L-band radiometer (microsat), a texturometer to measure ground surface texture, and a ferris wheel radar configuration that relies on cable tension for support.
