RESURS-O1 data from Eurimage
Entry ID: EURIMAGE_RESURS

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: Eurimage is bridging the gap between AVHRR's 1 km resolution and Landsat TM's
30 metres with data obtained from the RESURS-O1-3 satellite from Russia.
Launched in November 1994, this third satellite in the RESURS-O1 series carries
the MSU-SK multi-spectral scanner with a resolution of 170 metres, producing
data that can be used for:

mapping
environmental monitoring of large areas
coastal zone monitoring
agricultural monitoring
measurement of forest fire damage
snow cover assessment
ice monitoring

In particular, at scales of 1:500,000 to 1:1,000,000, Satellite Image Maps made
from RESURS data are the most competitive on the market.
