What is Remote Sensing ? How important it is ?
Remote Sensing ( A brief Introduction)
Hey there People,
In this blog I will be sharing what remote sensing
is and how significant it is ?
What Remote Sensing is?
Remote sensing is the technology of acquiring information
about the earth’s surface without actually being in contact with it.
Do you know ? : Our eyes work in visible part of spectrum
but it is also a Remote Sensor.
Remote Sensing is done by Sensing or recording reflected and
emitted energy and processing , analysing and applying that information.
What are the different components of Remote Sensing ?
a.
Energy Source Or illumination
b.
Radiation and the atmosphere
c.
Interaction with target
d.
Recording of energy with sensor
e.
Transmission , Reception and Processing
f.
Interpretation and Analysis
g.
Application
Remote Sensing process involves
an interaction between incident radiation and target of interests.
Advantages:
a.
Synoptic view
b.
Global Coverage
c.
Repeateability
d.
Multispectral
e.
Multi Resolution
f.
Near real time
g.
Systematic Data Collection
h.
The only solution to inaccessible area
i.
Generic Data
I will be writing about Historical
Perspective of Remote Sensing along with its importance in my next Blog.Stay Tuned………..:-)
