Remote sensing relies on electromagnetic energy emitted or reflected from the Earth's surface, primarily originating from the Sun.

Passive remote sensing systems detect and measure naturally emitted or reflected energy, such as visible light, infrared radiation, or microwaves.

Image interpretation involves analyzing and extracting information from remotely sensed images, often through visual examination and pattern recognition.

Remote sensing is widely used in agriculture for various applications, including crop yield estimation, soil moisture monitoring, pest and disease detection, and land use mapping.

Data fusion involves integrating data from different sources or sensors to enhance the quality, accuracy, and completeness of the information.

LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is a remote sensing technology that uses laser pulses to measure distances and create highly accurate topographic maps and elevation models.

Image rectification involves correcting geometric distortions in remotely sensed images to ensure accurate spatial alignment and referencing.

Image enhancement involves processing remotely sensed images to improve their visual appearance, contrast, and overall interpretability.

Image classification involves assigning labels or classes to pixels in a remotely sensed image based on their spectral or spatial characteristics.

Remote sensing is widely used in environmental monitoring for various applications, including deforestation monitoring, water quality assessment, air pollution monitoring, and natural disaster management.

Biophysical parameter retrieval involves extracting quantitative information, such as temperature, vegetation indices, or soil moisture, from remotely sensed data.

Remote sensing is widely used in urban planning and management for various applications, including land use mapping, transportation planning, urban heat island detection, and disaster preparedness.

Geospatial analysis involves integrating remotely sensed data with other geospatial data, such as GIS data, to perform spatial analysis, modeling, and decision-making.

Remote sensing is widely used in disaster management for various applications, including flood monitoring, wildfire detection, earthquake damage assessment, and disaster response planning.

Data acquisition involves the process of collecting remotely sensed data from satellites, aircraft, or other platforms.
