  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 software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_sensing_software

    Remote sensing applications are similar to graphics software, but they enable generating geographic information from satellite and airborne sensor data. Remote sensing applications read specialized file formats that contain sensor image data, georeferencing information, and sensor metadata .
