Study of application of remote sensing data to land use planning on the Mississippi Gulf Coast

There are no author-identified significant results in this report. Comparisons are being developed for ERTS-1 imagery and data from existing land use studies of the four county area of the Mississippi Gulf Coast. ERTS-1 data will be analyzed by computer programs and land use maps will be produced which delineate categories of interest. These computer produced products will be analyzed to determine accuracy and suitability of the data for land use planning compared to the present means of data collection for such studies.

Interstellar scattering and the sizes of astronomical masers.

The suggestion is explored that scattering by inhomogeneities in the distribution of electrons causes astronomical masers to appear larger than their actual sizes. It is shown that neither scattering near the source nor scattering in the intervening medium is sufficiently strong to produce this effect.
