EPIC
The Environmental Photographic Interpretation Center (EPIC) is a field
station of the Landscape Ecology Branch (LEB),
Environmental Sciences
Division - Las Vegas (ESD-LV), National Exposure Research Laboratory
(NERL), Office of Research and Development (ORD).
The Environmental Sciences Division (ESD) performs remote sensing in
support of Agency needs. Support takes two forms: 1) as applied remote
sensing technical support to the EPA Regional and Program Offices and
Laboratories, and 2) as research and development of existing and new
remote sensing systems and their potential application to EPA needs.
This site describes the remote sensing program of the ESD. The EPIC program is divided into two major sections: 1) Remote Sensing Technical Support; and 2) Remote Sensing Research & Development. These pages describe the on-going remote sensing activities of the ESD, specific remote sensing applications to environmental problems, research projects underway and completed, and available remote sensing products and services. Also included are selected tutorials on the basics of remote sensing, and links to other remote sensing sites.
