Kjeld Rasmussen, Henning Skriver, John Tychsen, Preben Gudmandsen & Morten Olsen: Environmental Monitoring by Remote Sensing in Denmark. Geografisk Tidsskrift, Danish Journal of Geography 94:xx–xx. Copenhagen, Dec. 1994. Danish environmental monitoring of the open sea, coastal waters, lakes, streams, ground water, air and land surfaces is presently based solely on conventional in-situ measurements. This paper discusses the potential for supplementing this programme with remote sensing from space- and aircraft. Three classes of remote sensing applications is identified and discussed: Monitoring of quickly varying parameters, requiring modest spatial resolution, monitoring of slowly varying parameters, requiring high spatial resolution, and ‘on-demand’ aircraft-based remote sensing of environmental phenomena. The discussion leads to a series of suggestions, concerning the potential operational applications in the short term as well as, demonstration experiments and research with a longer time horizon and im...
