Abstract
A summary of a long-term study on the suitability of remote sensing capabilities for use in hydrologic models is reported. Seven hydrologic models used by government agencies were investigated. Also, six remote sensing capabilities were considered (precipitation estimates were not included). The effect of the models' structure and their impact upon the applicability of remotely sensed information are discussed. A method of combining remotely sensed data with in situ collected observations is described and discussed. Particular attention is also given to the problem of updating the states of the models by using remotely sensed information. The general results of the study indicate remote sensing information has only limited value for use with the hydrologic models in their present form. The usefulness of the remote sensing information would be greatly enhanced with minor modification of the models.
