4.3 Data Sets 
4.3.1 Remote Sensing Data Set 
In order to perform multi temporal analysis, mutli 
temporal satellite data for some test site are prepared 
every year by NASDA and RESTEC. For the training of 
1995, total of four MOS-1 MESSR images of Mt. Pinatubo 
were prepared. Also, MOS-1 MESSR images which cover 
most of the Philippines were collected and stored in four 
CD-ROM. This MESSR data set is not only useful for the 
training, but also allow trainees to analyze any place of 
the Philippines with the data set after the training. 
4.3.2 GIS Data Set 
As for GIS training, the GIS data set of Yokyakarta of 
Indonesia was prepared by UNCRD. The data set consist 
of administration map, land use map, slope map, 
elevation map, rain fall map, geological map, soil map, 
road network map, road accessibility map, and pollution 
density map. Each map is in raster form of 465 by 375 
pixels with a pixel size of 200 x 200 meters. All the data 
are compressed and stored in a floppy disk with the 
software. 
5. CONCLUSION 
The computer technology advancement has realized 
the use of PCs for sophisticated training of remote 
  
Space & Remote Sensing 
sensing data analysis as well as  GIS. Further. 
the hardware/ software compatibility has allowed easy 
transfer of analysis system from professional users to 
end-users. The PC based hands-on-training performed 
under the frame work of the Regional Remote Sensing 
Seminar on Tropical Eco-system management is 
succeeding with the provision of public domain training 
software and data sets. 
However, to allow effective training, a kind of feedback 
flow is necessary. First flow is the space & remote sensing 
organizations to provide hardware environment, software 
environment, data sets to the end-users. The second flow 
is the end-users to provide application results and 
technical advice based on application experiences to the 
space & remote sensing organizations. If this feedback 
flow functions correctly, the end-users may able to 
effectively utilize remote sensing data in their own fields 
for the better understanding of global environmental 
change. And the remote sensing organizations may able 
to refine/advance the support for end-users including 
another training, software, and data set.
