About ERSC Established in 1970, the Environmental Remote Sensing Center (ERSC) is recognized as having been one of the first remote sensing facilities in the United States. Throughout its history it was highly regarded internationally for the development and application of cutting-edge remote sensing and geospatial technologies to the improved understanding of environmental systems. The legacy of ERSC is represented by the 100s of graduates around the world trained and supported by Drs. Tom Lillesand, Frank Scarpace, Al Vonderohe, Ralph Kiefer, Paul Wolfe, Steve Ventura, Jon Chipman, Tim Olsen, Peter Weiler, Sam Batzli, Mr. Larry Seidl, Ms. Marcia Verhage, and others. Some of the land remote sensing activities of ERSC live on in the continuing program "WisconsinView" and other geospatial activities in SSEC directed by Sam Batzli. Updated August 2018 |
