The paper introduces a research on the W-band Millimeter Wave Radiometer(RADW92) through an airborne experiment. Microwave remote sensing images of part of the Yellow River and the WeiHe River are of fared. Analysis of factors influencing the image qualities as well as the resolutions to them are also included. The RADW92 is the first generation of Millimeter Wave Radiometer in China, which works with operating frequency 92 GHz, the bandwidth 2 GHz, the integration time 60ms, the system sensitivity 0.6k and the linearity better than 0.999. Cassegrain Antenna is designed for imaging by conically scanning. The result of the experiment suggested that RADW92 had been adequate for space use.

This paper examines the capability of remote sensing technique for detecting and quantifying the foliar nutrients of oil palm crop. Study has been carried out in the Malaysian Palm Oil Board (MPOB) Research Station in Kluang Johore, Malaysia. Result of the study shows a strong relationship between measured foliar nutrient and the spectral reflectance measured using spectroradiometer. Model that has been developed can be used to estimate the nutrient concentration in the oil palm plantation at micro level and also at macro -level using appropriate satellite data.

College GIS and remote sensing education usually consists of commercial software packages implementations in the classroom. Computer programming is quite important when college graduates work in private or public sectors relevant with GIS and remote sensing implementations. The objective of this paper was to develop a valley management system which implements GIS and remote sensing as the key components for education. The Valley Authority is entitled with water resource protection for sustainable drinking water supply of the second largest city in Taiwan. The test area consists of three different government agencies, Forest Service, EPA, and Water Resource Agency. Materials were provided by the Valley Authority in ArcGIS file format. MapObjects have made the GIS development process much easier. Remote sensing with image manipulation functions were provided by computer programming with Visual Baisc.NET and Visual C#.NET. Attributes inquiry are performed by these two computer languages as well. ArcGIS and ArcPad are also used for simple GIS manipulations of the test area. Comparison between DIY and commercial GIS can be made by college students. Functions provided by the developed valley management system depending on how many map layers have been used and what types of MapObjects components have been used. Computer programming experience is not essential but can be helpful for a college student. The whole process is a step-by-step sequence which college students can modify to depict their capability in GIS and remote sensing. The development process has gone through one semester, three hours every week in 18 weeks. College students enrolled in this class entitled with GIS showed remarkable progresses both in GIS and remote sensing.

Recently, in the case of observing the global environment, satellite remote sensing technology has been important. It's because satellite remote sensing is valuable for assessing relatively large areas. But now, small scale remote sensing techniques are needed which can be applicable to the detail investigation of plant tree areas which afforest land after the large scale construction of roads, dams and airports. In this study, we tried to develop and propose a lower altitude sensing technique which can be used in ground remote sensing by using a CCD camera. As a result of this investigation the following can be concluded: We recognized the transference characteristics of filters which were used in comparative tests about the four ground remote sensing devices. We also found that the near-IR camera could be used for an imaging spectral radiometer in the extraction of the vegetation index. Furthermore, we found that the vegetation index has varied hour by hour during the day of the experiment. Finally, we brought about an increase phase of the NDVI in a forest fire, which caused considerable damage, by developing new ground remote sensing technology.

The power plants have a loading dock and unloading device for the diverse kinds of fuel such as the bituminous coal and natural gas imported by the sea from all over the world. To unload the coal in the ship not only in the environment-friendly manner but also in the cost-effective way, the new type of heavy equipment loaded with additional features as well as excavator and the remote controller to maneuver this equipment are developed. This heavy equipment, which can be used to unload the coal in the ship in conjunction with CSU (Continuous Ship Unloader), and the remote controller are endorsed by the related code and laws. With the remote controller, the field workers can operate the unloading equipment at the remote place far from the equipment as well as in the cabin for themselves without tile remote controller.

This research presents new type of remote monitoring and control solution of PLC that can be used bi-directional and efficient management of factory automation through internet. This system has client/server architect for information handling between PLC and remote computer where a user can control and monitor target PLC. Actually the authors redirect RS232C connection between PLC and server computer into Internet connection between PLC and remote client computer using supplied PLC tool program So user feel like in front of PLC panel when he operates remote PLC through Internet. Each client/server program is constructed with Java language for security. In this paper the internet-based remote control system was proposed and proved validity by being applied to redirection of PLC control for factory automation.

A set of microwave remote sensing data collected with the newly developed UMass Imaging Wind and Rain Airborne Profiler (IWRAP) during the 2002 Atlantic Hurricane Season was analyzed to further our understanding of the effect of precipitation on scatterometer wind vector retrieval. Coincident surface wind speed and precipitation measurements were provided by the UMass Simultaneous Frequency Microwave Radiometer (SFMR). The differences between the wind estimations from IWRAP and SFMR under precipitation conditions of 0-100mm/hr and wind speed of 0-60m/s was calculated, from which the effect of precipitation on the wind vector retrieval using scatterometry is analyzed qualitatively.

This paper presents a geological remote sensing information extraction system, the aim of which is to provide practical models and powerful tools to extract geological information from remote sensing images for geological exploration applications. After reviewing and analyzing the existing methods for geological information extraction, we developed more than ten models to enhance and extract geological information, such as alteration information, linear features and special lithological characters. The system is developed based on Erdas Imagine using its programming language. It has been successfully used in the 'reat Investigation of Land and Natural Resources of China' program.
