Department of Geological Sciences, NASA Research Grant Reports 1964-1970

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Research Grant was a six year project to study the application of statistical techniques to remotely-sensed data for the purposes of lunar mapping. Using statistical analysis, Northwestern geologists profiled the composition, physical properties, and surface configurations of selected test sites in Michigan and California. This series consists of an incomplete run of periodically-issued status and special subject reports as well as a copy of the grant proposal dated July 17, 1964. The status reports document the scope and development of the project. Special subject reports deal with aspects of geological sampling, statistical and computer applications for geological analysis, and profile the geological composition of selected terrestrial sites.
