  2. Remote sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_sensing

    Remote sensing is the acquisition of information about an object or phenomenon without making physical contact with the object, in contrast to in situ or on-site observation. The term is applied especially to acquiring information about Earth and other planets .

  3. Remote sensing in geology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_sensing_in_geology

    Richat Structure by Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM). Instead of being a meteorite impact, the landform is more likely to be a collapsed dome fold structure.. Remote sensing is used in the geological sciences as a data acquisition method complementary to field observation, because it allows mapping of geological characteristics of regions without physical contact with the areas being ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Society_for...

    Remotely sensed observations of the Earth from air- and space-borne sensors provide the basis for mapping of human and natural activities; for monitoring change; for assessing and mitigating disasters; for identifying and assessing non-renewable resources; for monitoring temporal changes in weather, land and sea cover; and for many other applications.

  5. Quantitative remote sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantitative_remote_sensing

    Quantitative remote sensing is a branch of remote sensing. The quantitative remote sensing system does not directly measure land surface parameters of interest. Instead, the signature remote sensors receive is electromagnetic radiation reflected, scattered, and emitted from both the surface and the atmosphere . [ 1 ]
