Summary
Abstract: The Optical Sensor(OPS) provide better ground resolution than MOS-1's
MESSR. The OPS separates the light reflected from the ground into
seven spectral bands from visible to short-wave infrared and employes
CCD's. Detailed pictures from the satellite allow us to survey the
earth resources, monitor sea status and obtain other information
useful for improving our life.
