It is demonstrated that the multispectral scanner, using multiple channels in registry and recorded on magnetic tape, can be used in variety of applications in the marine environment.
Shallow ocean depth measurements by aerial photographs of wave refraction and wavelength changes and by multispectral scanning of wave reflection
Airborne multispectral remote sensing of forests, describing previsual detection of damage from insect infestations, disease organisms and oxidant air pollution
Atmospheric path effects on spectral radiance intensity in remote airborne multispectral sensors
The technique for measuring the depth of water using a multispectral scanner is discussed. The procedure takes advantage of the absorption properties of different wavelengths of light. Making use of the property of the selected transmission of light at different wavelengths, an equation was developed relating the outputs of at least two channels of multispectral scanner to measure water depth.
