This is the final report on the exploratory research performed by Gulf Weather Corporation (GWC) and the Mississippi State University Center for Air Sea Technology (MSU CAST) on Phase I of SBIR topic N93-002; subject: Automated Oceanographic Imagery Information. The sponsor of the research was the Office of Naval Research. Investigation revealed that the primary means of satellite imagery interpretation is by manual. The methodology is cumbersome and the number of 'things of interest' is large, making it highly manpower intensive. The anticipated rapid increase in satellite systems and sensors and the increasing requirements for satellite remotely sensed data to support oceanographic and meteorological models and fleet support applications, particularly in the near-shore coastal zone, indicates that the situation will continue to worsen. The only long term solution is an integrated system of automated tools for satellite data interpretation. There are a number of automated satellite image analysis algorithms available today and others under development. This report provides the generic design for a metadata database system based on 'object-oriented' software, that will provide the 'user- friendly' system for making satellite data analysis tools available to Navy operational and research oceanographers and meteorologists.
