Abstract
The problem of detection of oil pollution on the earth's surface is considered. The results of experimental investigations of laser-induced fluorescence spectra of petroleum products, and petroleum products on earth's surfaces are presented. It is shown that the use of a laser method, based on fluorescence radiation recording within three narrow spectral bands, allows detection of oil pollution on the earth's surfaces with a probability of correct classification close to unity, and small probability of false alarm.
