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* Chopped long and badly outdated contact list.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.
