5. CONCLUSIONS 
Each sensor regarding its design specifications has special 
Radiometric and Geometric Quality status that directly 
influences the applications and user& demand. 
Automatic Quality assessment and mprovement procedures are 
not always possible and sometimes a simple manual stage needs 
much complicated automatic stages. But finally most of things 
that eye senses and recognizes could be modeled by programs 
with different accuracy and consequently diffeent complexity 
levels.
