Thesis to obtain the degree of the Doctor of Science in the field of engineering, specialty 05. 07. 12. - Remote aerospace research. - The Center for Aerospace Research of the Earth of the Institute of the Geological Science of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Kyiv, 2003. The problem of creating the methodology for the system analysis of remote sensing of the Earth for ecology and business activities (EBA) problems solving has been resolved. The methodology incorporates the models of the system of remote sensing of the Earth (RSE), which take into account technical and economical factors and provide for a possibility of their adaptation. The efficiency evaluation criterion for RSE systems has been developed for EBA problems solving on the basis of determination of the membership function as a weight total of the function of adherence of the characteristics of EBA problems and parameters of RSE space system. A simulation model of RSE system has been developed for EBA problems solving, which includes modules of the earth surface sighting, information registration, transmission and receipt of information, and management systems. The model takes into account economic factors of RSE implementation for EBA problems. The simulation model implements the method of adaptive balance of impact, which reflects the relationships of cause and effect in the system of RSE. For the model of RSE system the method of its adaptation has been developed, and the information for it are the criteria of space images' quality evaluation. Mathematical structural and textual models of the elements of landscape zones of the objects of EBA problems for an automated decoding of space images have been developed. The methods of system approach, with use of space information, to solving the problems of the ecological situation evaluation and complex water use have been developed. With the help of a simulation model of RSE system, simulation has been performed and evaluation of space system Sich-1M obtained during performanceof the tasks, sub-programs and program of EBA developed by the Center for Aerospace Research of the Earth of the Institute of the Geological Science of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The method of RSE system optimization for EBA problems solving through simulation according to different scenarios, with use of different variants of equipment design of RSE space systems, has been developed. The simulation method in the form of a statistical experiment according to different scenarios, with use of different variants of RSE space systems equipment design, has been developed for optimization of RSE system during EBA problems solving. Key words: remote sensing of the Earth, system analysis, efficiency evaluation criterion, adherence and membership functions, mathematical model, problem characteristics, equipment parameters, space image.
