Prospect and Application of Remote Sensing Technique in Environmental Protection
遥感技术在环境保护领域中的应用现状

This paper summerizes systematically the developmental course and the features of environmental remote sensing with the accomplishment having been made in China. Environmental remote sensing is a new technique in china, but it has been developing rapidly. In the past 13 years,it has already been applied in urban environmental monitoring,environmental planning and management,envi-romental assessment, ecological environmental investigation and environmental developing pattern etc. . Agreat progress has been made in these fields. It can be predicted that we will face great challenge such as the problem of environment protection and economic development, globle environmental changes etc. in the 1990s, At the same time, the requirement for remote sensing science will increase rapidly, so it will have an extansive application prospect.
