Abstract
Abstract The current status of the application of remote sensing techniques in China is described. The Chinese LANDSAT ground station was recently put into operation, and more than thirty low and medium altitude aircraft for remote sensing applications are now operational. Digital image processing systems are now widely used in remote sensing applications, while new instruments and sensors have been developed and are now in use. Applications of remote sensing in China for land resource surveys, urban pollution detection and environmental monitoring, agriculture, forestry, hydrology, geology, coal mining, uranium exploration, glaciology and cryopedology are discussed.
