Space sensors to aid food, water and land planning
NASA studied earth resource sensing to cut crop losses by about 10 percent with a $40 million effort and $100 million yearly gains from improved agricultural output. Sensors would monitor glaciers, water levels, and land use, map population densities, and track fishing conditions, while the Air Force Vela spacecraft added solar sensing for defense. Lt Gen. J W ONeill notes dividends from space investment accrue quickly as technology moves from principle to practice.
