Areas of interest identified during the system planning phase included: emergency and disaster detection, assessment, response, and prevention; climate change; environmental emergencies and protection; dam safety; crop, forest, and rangeland inventories; productivity assessments, disease and pest control; energy and minerals resource assessment; geologic mapping; wetlands inventories. Federal civil agencies with an interest in remote sensing applications now include: Department of Agriculture Department of Commerce Department of Energy Department of the Interior Department of Transportation Environmental Protection Agency Federal Emergency Management Agency National Aeronautics and Space Administration National Science Foundation National Transportation Safety Board Nuclear Regulatory Commission Smithsonian Institution Studies and projects proposed for the program include: Exploring the use of remote sensing systems and analysis techniques to identify and detect possible precursors to geologic disasters such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Providing rapid assessment of a natural disaster's severity; for example, to verify personal, industrial and governmental assistance claims. The flooding in the Midwest last spring and the Northridge California earthquake of this year are the most recent examples of the need for such assessment. Exploring the application of remote sensing systems to detecting environmental emergencies such as oil spills and underground fires in landfills and coal mine refuse piles. The United States currently has no effective system for detecting and monitoring environmental emergencies. Investigating the utility of remote sensing systems in inspecting dams and reservoirs for signs of potential failure or collapse. Most of the nation's dams are inspected only every 3 to 6 years. Techniques for increasing this frequency will be investigated. Investigating techniques for the identification and inventory of crop, forest, and pasture lands along with techniques for detection and support in the control of pest infestations. Investigating techniques for geologic mapping through obscuring forests, vegetation, and clouds as well as techniques for the automation of geologic mapping. CONCLUSION The concept of an integrated production system is bringing together the functions of photogrammetry, image processing, and the geographic information system in a common workstation environment. Such systems are a logical development given the continuing growth in the demand for georeferenced data by earth scientists, resource managers, and urban planners. As NARSAP demonstrates, these systems are becoming commercially available. Systems such as this one that supports the NARSAP provide users with a versatile set of tools and should promote the development of new techniques in using data from remote sensing systems. Within the U. S. Government scientists and administrators are finding them of tremendous value for investigating and managing a wide variety of environmental, resource, and emergency response management activities. 277
