Final Report on the First Step in Distributed Remote Sensing,

Abstract

Distributed remote sensing (DRS) has a number of promising applications; the World Laboratory's First Step in DRS documented and discussed them widely. Acceptance for DRS is growing in the U.S., the Former Soviet Republics (FSRs), and among global scientific, political, and military leaders. Ecological and defense applications were discussed in international meetings in Dubna and Erice. Its dual-use applications have solid support. The World Laboratory's Global Environmental Monitoring (GEM) project is appropriate, feasible, and an excellent vehicle for communication and cooperation, which could grow rapidly into a global effort.
