Abstract
LANDSAT-1 (ERTS-1) data of the complete scene, 1218-04320, covering an area 185 Km x 185 Km in the Godavari Valley, India was computer processed in the Computer Division of the Oil and Natural Gas Commissíon to produce an imagery of readily recognizable land forms. Comparison with the original maps supplied by NASA showed an amazing agreement in quality. Computer oriented data enhancement techniques were developed and the data was reprocessed with the help of these techniques. The resulting imagery reveal an improvement over the originals. The computer software package developed to-date comprises nine different programmes to process the LANDSAT data on the IBM 360, 370 series.
