7. Conclusion 
  
We developed a system to make JERS-1 simulation stereoscopic 
images from photographs. Using this system, we produced JERS-1 
simulation stereoscopic images of the Izu peninsula in Japan 
from an LFC photograph taken from the space shuttle. From the 
evaluation of these stereoscopic images, it is confirmed that 
the stereoscopic images of JERS-1 produce fine stereoscopic 
vision with acceptable vertical exaggeration, and the ground 
resolution of JERS-1 is more than acceptable to extract terrain 
features of the earth's surface. 
We carried out some experiments to investigate the usefulness 
of these images. One of them was lineament extraction from 
four stereoscopic images with different base-to-height ratios. 
From these experiments we found that JERS-1 stereoscopic images 
are very useful to explore earth resources. 
But our work has not been sufficient to investigate all the 
possible applications of JERS-1 stereoscopic images. We hope 
that many other investigations of JERS-1 stereoscopic images 
are executed and many application fields of these images are 
developed.
