中国彩色卫星影像图的设计与编制

584 scenes of Landsat MSS images acquired in 1970's are chosen for compilation in consideration of the national conditions and applied requirement. Reasonable cartographic design, multiple optical processing techniques and the soft-mosaicking cartographic technique are used. Then, the false-colour Landsat image map of China is compiled on the scale of 1:1,000,000. which is concordance in colour and excellent in macro-apperance. It lively shows the general geographic features of China, and has extensive applicability and academic value.
