Remotely sensed imagery data, represented by Landsat MSS data are very useful for research of regional environment, however, just the results of the analyzed data and its display are not always sufficient for putting them into practical use. In order to investigate a regional environment from various viewpoints on the spot, geographical and social data ought to be considered as well as the remotely sensed imagery data. An interactive image processing system is developed for this purpose.
In this paper the development of Hiroshima Image Processing System (HIPS) is described. HIPS consists of the hardware of micro-computers and peripheral I/O devices for image data processing and of the softwares for interactively processing remotely sensed imagery data and other social data. HIPS was designed and manufactured on an experimental basis within limited research expense, aiming not only to contribute to education and research of remote sensing in the institute, but also to perform further researches of various fields.
