Satellite Imagery FAQ
=====================
Satellite Imagery for Earth Observation
Last Modified: December 13th 1996:
_The updates have been rather sporadic since September - sorry._
* Removed apparently nonfunctional "Geoscience Journals" server;
added some new references for journal information.
* Chopped long and badly outdated contact list. Left in the
reference to the original it was copied from.
* Updated references for downloadable assessment software
(Kappa/Entropy).
* Various miscellaneous updates from the backlog, including Web
references.
* The Interactive FAQ software is now operational again at
http://pobox.com/%7Esatfaq/ I'm looking to use it to
'democratise' this document (i.e. encourage direct contributions
which will automatically ingested), but my other FAQ - which is
much shorter and simpler than this one - is leading the way in
terms of contents.
NOTE: a server which was dead for several days appears to have killed
November's posting - sorry. Also I've made some changes to the
posting scripts: apologies in advance if it screws up.
============================================
The HTML version of this FAQ may be read at Web addresses, including:

(2) by anonymous ftp from rtfm.mit.edu and its mirror sites.
(3) by email from the SATFAQ or RTFM autoresponders - see below.
The RTFM archive name is sci/Satellite-Imagery-FAQ, or it may be
found under the sci.* newsgroups listed below. Note that, for
technical reasons, it is NOT archived under the group comp.infosystems.gis
To retrieve it from RTFM:

with the following in the body of your message:
send usenet/news.answers/sci/Satellite-Imagery-FAQ/part1
(or part2, ..., part5)
The full document is posted to the following Usenet groups:
comp.infosystems.gis
sci.geo.meteorology
sci.image.processing
sci.geo.eos
sci.answers
news.answers
Posting to comp.infosystems.gis is as a single document, to ensure its
rejection by the GIS-L gateway and avoid flooding list subscribers mailboxes.
GIS-L subscribers should see this pointer, but not the FAQ itself!
