Abstract
The parallax on ERTS and Skylab images is sufficiently large for stereoscopic examination by human interpreters. The ability to view the images stereoscopically reduces, the signal-to-noise ratio. The geometry of ERTS and Skylab images reveals that both camera and scanner systems provide parallax. Dy using stereoscopic examination, ground locations are found more rapidly than when the 'apparent' relief suggested solely by tonal patterns is examined monocularly. The resultant relationships observed in this manner between land forms differences make interpretation of vegetation and geomorphology easier.
