The studies began when the Tiros satellites (1960) provided man s first synoptic view of the Earth s weather systems.

The studies began when the Tiros satellites (1960) provided man s first synoptic view of the Earth s weather systems. Remote sensing of the Earth from orbital altitudes was recognized in the mid-1960 s as a potential technique for obtaining information important for the effective use and conservation of natural resources.
