COMMISSION VII: DATA INTERPRETATION 
The Soil Reconnaissance Unit of the INTA (National Institute of Agricul- 
tural Technology), an agency under the Ministry of Agriculture and Lives- 
tock develops and applies methodologies tending to the detection and 
study of natural resources using as basic tool the information supplied 
by all type of remote sensors. 
Images obtained by the ERTS-1 satellite have made possible to ga- 
ther, thanks to an agreement signed by the NASA and the INTA, a large 
quantity of data on the region named PAMPEAN, of great value in the 
field of natural sciences. 
Several thematic maps have been prepared, such as the following: 
1) Map of the use of the land. 
2) Map limiting areas with erosion problems (hydric or eolic). 
3) Geoedaphological map. 
The Exploration Management of the National Oil Corporation (Yaci- 
mientos Petrolíferos Fiscales) uses aerial photographs with the purpose 
of hydracarbon prospection, their scales varying from 1: 25 000 to 1: 80 000. 
In some specific problems, hyperaltitude photographs of the ERTS pro- 
gram are used. 
COMISION VII: INTERPRETACION DE DATOS 
La Unidad de Reconocimientos de Suelos del INTA dependiente del 
Ministerio de Agricultura y Ganadería investiga, desarrolla y aplica me- 
todologías tendientes a la detección y estudio de los recursos naturales 
utilizando como herramienta básica la información suministrada por todo 
tipo de sensores remotos. 
Así es como las imágenes obtenidas por el satélite ERTS-1 han per- 
mitido obtener merced a un convenio firmado entre la NASA e INTA una 
cantidad de datos pertenecientes a la región denominada PAMPEANA de 
indudable valor en el campo de las ciencias naturales. 
Actualmente, se han realizado una serie de mapas temáticos, a saber: 
1) Mapa de uso de la tierra. 
2) Mapa delimitando áreas con problemas de erosión (hídrica o eóli- 
ca) ya sea de carácter natural o antrópico. 
3) Mapa geoedafológico.
