26. 6) Conclusion and perspectives  The results comparison indicate that the modelled spectrum can even better characterize the tailings in the case of semi-arid context,  The SMA approach can be an optimal solution to replace the lack of the spectroradiometer and can be applied successfully to multispectral data analysis, particularly those acquired during previous periods. Conclusion Perspectives  We plan for more campaign,  We propose to test the SMA approach for different mining sites. 26 2011 IEEE Internaional Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium- 29 july N.
