笔谈:地球信息科学研究的进展——祝贺陈述彭院士八十华诞

Comments on Progress in Geoinformation Science

陈述彭院士是我国地理学界著名的科学家， 他长期致力于地理学、地图学、地球信息科学的研究， 是我国遥感应用科学的奠基人， 地球信息科学研究的开拓者。在陈述彭院士的大力倡导和积极组织下， 我国地理科学工作者圆满完成了国家地图集编撰、遥感技术应用、地理信息系统开发等许多国家重大科研项目； 建立了遥感应用研究所、地理信息系统国家实验室等一批重点科研机构；培养和造就了数以百计的青年科学家。值此陈述彭院士８０寿辰之际， 本刊发表这一组笔谈， 回顾陈述彭院士在推动我国地理学、地图学、遥感应用、地理信息系统等学科发展中的卓越贡献， 以表达我们对他的敬意。

Geo information Science, including Cartography, Remote Sensing application and GIS, have achieved great successes in China. As early as the 1950s, the Physical Atlas of China had been compiled. Since then, there are more than 10 national atlases have been published. In 1980s, the Institute of Remote Sensing and State Key Laboratory of Resources & Environment Information System were established, that promote the research of Remote Sensing application, GIS in China. Now, Digital Earth research is developing. Professor Chen Shupeng, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has made significant contributions to these progresses of in China.
