Conclusion 
ce to | Remote Sensing develops clearly into an interesting tool for 
| oceanographers. One of the main problems today is the access to 
etric | specific RS data. This access deserves to be improved, especially 
| for those who do not own or have access to high level technology 
e the | for processing. In this respect, a large part of the oceanographic 
community could still be considered as "developing". 
The IOC/IODE Task Team on Exchange and Archival of Remotely Sensed 
data- Oceanographic Data will continue to act as an intermediate between 
units”. the oceanographers and the RS world. The satellite derived oceano- 
| data graphic data as well. In this way, the oceanographic data centre 
network could help to improve the distribution of oceanographic 
RS data.
