Group on International Satellites. With the support of all of ISPRS, Commission VII could 
initiate the formation of an International Consultative Expert Group on Remote Sensing 
Data Policy. The principal task of the Group would be to design a draft data policy for 
consideration by the Economic Summit Nations. Members of this Consultative Group and 
their advisors should be at sufficiently high level so that the draft policy would receive 
serious consideration by the States concerned. We call upon Commission VII to report back 
to ISPRS at their 17th Congress in Washington in the International Space Year, 1992, to 
provide a summary of actions taken, and a status report to Members.
