Morocco, Science, 12/19/2001
Morocco's King Mohammed VI dedicated last Saturday the new headquarters of the royal space remote sensing center (CRTS).
The sovereign toured the center departments, including the audio-visual department that is endowed with state-of-the-art equipment in matters of photography, digital television and recording.
The sovereign was greeted by several officials as well as by the team of searchers who supervised the development and launching of the Moroccan first satellite.
The center, set up in 1989, is a state institution that seeks to promote and coordinate activities in matters of remote sensing at the national scale. It collects and distributes satellite data, assists users and contributes to promoting training and research in the field.
The center has carried out several projects integrating remote sensing in matters of natural resources assessment and management, environment protection and land planning.
