Overview[]
This report, the first of three in a broad OTA assessment of Earth observation systems, examined issues related to the development and operation of publicly funded U.S. and foreign civilian remote sensing systems. It also explored the military and intelligence use of data gathered by civilian satellites. In addition, the report examined the outlook for privately funded and operated remote sensing systems.
