Abstract The preliminary results of a survey are presented which identify techniques for determining meteorological data by remote sensing, applicable to automatic data buoy platforms. Both passive and active techniques are reviewed with emphasis on the former, in view of their more advanced development status. The principal references listed in the bibliography section of the memorandum indicate that experimental data to date have been obtained using only stable instrument platforms in a clean environment. Operation on unstable instrument platforms in the severe ocean environment requires further study.
