Operational means for obtaining spaceborne video data in the optical range
Abstract
The paper examines operational systems for obtaining satellite remote sensing data on two-dimensional distributions of reflected and emitted radiation at the earth surface. These include TV systems, optical scanner systems in the visible and near infrared and a number of hybrid systems. The basic design principles of these systems are described and a comparative analysis of their parameters, possible fields of application and prospects of development is presented.
