ITS ALL ABOUT REMOTE SENSING . IT'S APPLICATIONS, FUNCTIONS AND TECHNICS
it is just uploaded for the help of students of city and regional planning and the civil engineering students of all the universities .
5. History
1858 Balloonist G.Tournachon made photographs of
Paris from his balloon.
Systematic aerial photography developed for military and
reconnaissance purposes beginning in World War I and
reaching a climax during the Cold War .
Artificial satellites in the latter half of the 20th century.
8. signatures produced by wavelength-dependent
absorption.
the ratio of reflected energy to incident energy as a
function.
9. radiant energy that is measured by an aerial or
satellite sensor
electromagnetic energy returned from the Earth’s
surface can be detected by a light-sensitive film.
10. a function of the design of the sensor
detectors in a remote sensor measures energy received
from a finite patch of the ground surface
11. Parallel sensor arrays detecting radiation in a small
number of broad wavelength bands
allow discrimination of different types of : vegetation,
rocks and soils,
clear and turbid water, and
some man-made materials
14. Optical Remote System
Optical remote sensing makes use of visible, near
infrared and short-wave infrared sensors to form images
of the earth's surface by detecting the solar radiation
reflected from targets on the ground.
15. RADAR System
Radio Detection And Ranging
Object detection system which uses electromagnetic
waves determine range, direction or speed
16. LiDAR System
Light Detection And Ranging
Measures distance by sending pulses of laser light that
strike and reflect from the surface of earth.
