data, information, and 
exchanges; 
- Approaching and solving some of our country's 
major problems: i.e. monitor and control of the 
national hydro-energetic and hydro-reclamation 
systems, of large landslides, of deltaic subsidence; 
drawing up of DEM-DTM, mainly for the micro- 
relief. 
- Regarding the international collaboration - we are 
proposing to facilitate - on a partnership system 
basis - exchanges of caracteristic "windows", 
extracted from the ERS recordings, for each of the 
operating modes of the SAR-ERS instrument.

biological pollution, 
- Monitoring of oil pollution being of special 
interest for us, we intend to develop an application 
of indentification of oil spill pollution based on 
principal component and linear discriminant 
analysis. 
- Last, but not least, we would like to express our 
wish and intention not to lose touch with the 
advanced and top technologies, even in the rather 
difficult conditions we are passing through.
