Abstract
The progress of digital processing of satellite earth resources data is charted over the past four years. From the general trends, probable patterns for future processing are inferred. These lead to suggestions for a new approach to the provision of earth resources services involving satellite data. Mechanisms are proposed and discussed for implementing this approach, and basic questions that must be answered are set forth.
