Abstract
Development of a vegetation and soils field research data base was initiated in 1972 at Purdue University's Laboratory for Applications of Remote Sensing and expanded in the fall of 1974 by NASA as part of LACIE. Since then, over 250 000 truck-mounted and helicopter-borne spectrometer/multiband radiometer observations have been obtained of more than 250 soil series and 20 species of crops, grasses and trees. These data are suplemented by an extensive set of biophysical and meteorological data acquired during each mission.-from STAR, 24(1), 1986 English
