Landgate's Operational Remote Sensing Program in Western Australia: From Local to National Scale

摘要

The Western Australian Land Information Authority (Landgate) is responsible for land information in the state of Western Australia. Here land information is a very broad term and encompasses land, oceans and atmosphere. This definition has in part been shaped by the operations of the Satellite Remote Sensing Services (SRSS) branch of Landgate with the aim that a strong remote sensing program remains central to the efficient and effective functioning of Western Australian state government. This paper describes a selection of the remote sensing based services delivered by SRSS to the benefit of state government and the community.
