REMOTE SENSING

Prepared By, Guided by,

Divyesh Patel Shafeequerrahman S. Ahmed


INTRODUCTION
• Early 1800’s – Louis Daguerre – beginning of photography
• 1850s- 1900’s – Photographs taken by captive balloons, pigeons
• World War I – Aerial photography
• 1920s – Photogrammetry
– Routine applications for government programs
– Mapping, surveys, etc.
• World War II – Use of electromagnetic spectrum increases to include
infrared and microwave
• “Cold War” – extensive use of reconnaissance techniques – launching of
‘spy’ satellites
• 1960s –TIROS – meteorological satellite
– First use of term “remote sensing”

What is REMOTE SENSING?

Remote Sensing is the science (and to


some extent, art) of acquiring information
about the Earth's surface without actually
being in contact with it.
REMOTE SENSING - Platform
Platform Altitude(km.)
• Geostationary satellite - 36000
• Polar Orbiting satellite - 500-1000
• Space Shuttle - 240-350
• Jet Aircraft - 10-12
• Airplane - 0.3-7.5
• Ground - Few Metres
Types of REMOTE SENSING
Active Remote Sensing Passive Remote Sensing
How REMOTE SENSING done?
REMOTE SENSING RECEPTION
Why REMOTE SENSING is
required?
Earthquake Prediction
DISADVANTAGES OF
REMOTE SENSING
• Expensive to build and operate!!!!
• Measurement uncertainty can be large
• Data interpretation can be difficult
• need to understand theoretically how the instrument is
making the measurements
• need to understand measurement uncertainties
• need to have some knowledge of the phenomena you are
sampling
APPLICATIONS OF
REMOTE SENSING
• Agriculture
• Forestry
• Geology
• Hydrology
• Sea Ice
• Land Cover & Land Use
• Mapping
• Oceans & Coastal Monitoring
