Abstract

MOMS-02/D2, as a continuation of MOMS-01, has been developed for digital mapping of the Earth's surface from space. The camera will be flown on-board the second German Spacelab Mission D2 which is presently scheduled for launch in September 1992. The special characteristic of this camera is the combination of high-resolution panchromatic images for 3- dimensional geometric information with multispectral images for thematic applications. With this concept MOMS-02 is fundamentally different from all existing remote sensing systems and thus pursues new and independent goals.
