Agriculture and natural resource based industries are the mainstay of Malaysianeconomy. A national remote sensing programme is formulated with the objective of providing an effective management tool for sustained production of these resources while at the same time safeguarding the environment. A major component of this programme is the establishing of a Malaysian Centre for Remote Sensing (MCRS) which functions to provide coordination for activities related to remote sensing technology in the country. Facilities available at MCRS include image processing system (IPS∥ capable of processing and analysing satellite and airborne data from different sources including Landsat, SPOT, MOS, SAR and AP, and geographic information systems (GIS) for analysis of spatially referenced data, and a dedicated photographic laboratory for high resolution hard copy outputs. The capability to integrate remote sensing and GIS data into a spatially referenced environment is the unique feature of the facilities at MCRS.
