- Subject: Further Reading
-
- Further Reading
-
- Is there a good general introduction to Remote Sensing on the Net?
-
- The CIESIN Thematic Guide to Remote Sensing is an excellent
- introduction at http://www.ciesin.org/TG/RS/RS-home.html
-
- CCRS have a beautiful set of annotated images (of Canada) on their
- pages, at http://www.ccrs.nrcan.gc.ca/ccrs/tour/toure.html. This
- presents a number of images - chiefly Landsat and SPOT - together with
- explanations of what can be seen in them, and why particular features
- appear the way they do.

-
- I have a question that isn't covered in the FAQ
-
- 1. Look in the CEOS IDN. This is the authoritative worldwide
- information system that answers every possible question about
- Satellite Earth Observation. The IDN has three coordinating nodes,
- each carrying the complete directory:
-
- America
- The Global Change Master Directory is accessible by WWW
- at http://gcmd.gsfc.nasa.gov/ or by telnet to
- gcmd.gsfc.nasa.gov (login as "gcdir").
-
- Europe
- The IDN is available via Hyper-G or WWW via Esrin's GDS
- at http://gds.esrin.esa.it/CCEOS-IDN or by telnet to
- epocat.esrin.esa.it (login as "esapid").
-
- Asia
- The IDN is available from NASDA at
- http://www.eoc.nasda.go.jp/guide/eus/index.html, or by
- telnet to nsaeoc.eoc.nasda.go.jp
-
- 2. Look in Esrin's GDS (URL below). Supports browsing, or keyword
- search types of access.
- 3. Look in USGS's www-glis (URL below). A major source of detailed
- information.

- LISTSERV and discussion lists via e-mail only
-
- A word on Listservs:
-
- A Listserv is a mailing list. When you are subscribed, you receive all
- messages posted to the list, until and unless you unsubscribe.
- Likewise, when you post a message to the list, it is recieved by all
- list subscribers.
-
- To (un)subscribe to a list, send an email to the address given, with
- the single line:
- (un)subscribe listname your-full-name
-
- where 'listname' is the part of the posting address to the left of the
- "@".
-
- Please do NOT post subscribe/unsubscribe requests to the lists. It
- _won't_ have the desired effect, but it _will_ irritate list members.
-
- Messages should be on subjects appropriate to the list. Inappropriate
- messages, and particularly advertisements, will generate nothing but
- ill-will. On the other hand, don't be shy to ask something just
- because "this may be a stupid question...". The largest volume of
- stupid messages typically comprises attempts to subscribe or
- unsubscribe.
-
- A common source of minor annoyance on Lists arises when a perfectly
- good but perhaps rather narrow/technical question has been asked, and
- answers are posted. The answer may be exactly what the questioner
- wanted, but of little or no general interest to other readers. Many
- such answers are unintentionally posted, because that's what happens
- when you simply "reply" to a message (unless the author of the
- original message has explicitly set a Reply-to: line in the header).

- * WXSAT-L
- This list serves two functions. The primary function is the
- distribution of NOAA status and prediction bulletins for the GOES
- and polar weather satellites. This data is the same data available
- via SCIENCEnet NOAA.SAT bulletin board area. The mail list also
- acts as a reflector for subscribers' comments and discussion of
- matters related to weather satellites, ground stations, and
- associated topics.
- Contact: wxsat-request@ssg.com (Richard B. Emerson)
- * IMAGRS-L
- Digital Image Processing of Remotely Sensed Data
- The area of digital image processing of remotelly sensed data
- should be the main topic of this club - so exactly the problems of
- the interest are the methods of digital image processing for
- remotelly sensed data (like LANDSAT or SPOT) as well as microwave
- and also new types of data for remote sensing the Earth or other
- objects. Also computer problems with these very time demanding
- methods can interesting including visualization, paralel computing
- etc.
- Subscriptions should go to listserv@cesnet.cz
- Send a message with the following body:
- SUBSCRIBE IMAGRS-L _add_your_full_name_here_
- * AFRICA-EIS rg
- Another African GIS discussion group.
- Contributions should go to: africa-eis@tome.worldbank.org
- Subscriptions and commands: listserv@tome.worldbank.org
- The first line of the message should read:

- Terminology and Acronyms

- I used to have a list of acronyms here, and the intention of merging
