Yes,
I thought that sci.image.processing was going to be relavent but until this
article I havn't understood a word of it for months! However, I believe this
newsgroup was set up to deal with 'Image processing techniques relating to
remote sensing applications' so it really depends on what you mean be 
remote sensing. I want a group to discuss SATELLITE REMOTE SENSING (and I
suppose similar sensors on aircraft etc), with relavence to environmental
processes (weather, geology, land use, etc) on the Earth and indeed other
planets. This presently crossesgeology and meterology newsgroups but isn't
really the place to dicsuss Radar vs IR, AVHRR vs Landsat vs Spot vs etc.
Overall I would consider a newsgroup sci.geo.remote.sensing or some such
group to be useful........
