Remote sensing can be broadly defined as the collection and interpretation of information about an object, area, or event without being in physical contact with the object.
Aircraft and satellitesare the common platforms for remote sensing of the earth and its natural resources.
Aerial photography in the visible portion of the electromagnetic wavelength was the original form of remote sensing but technological developments has enabled the acquisition of information at other wavelengths including near infrared, thermal infrared and microwave.
![Page 6: Remotesensing - introduction](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062905/587245401a28ab102f8b8677/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Collection of information over a large numbers of wavelength bands is referred to as multispectral or hyperspectral data.Electromagnetic energy
The electromagnetic (EM) spectrum is the continuous range of electromagnetic radiation, extending from gamma rays (highest frequency & shortest wavelength) to radio waves (lowest frequency & longest wavelength) and including visible light.
The EM spectrum can be divided into seven different regions —— gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet, visible light, infrared, microwaves and radio waves.

Remote Sensing? Remote sensing is defined as the technique
of obtaining information about objects through the analysis of data collected by special instruments that are not in physical contact with the objects of investigation.
Collection of information about an object without coming into physical contact.
The information needs a physical carrier to travel from the objects/events to the sensors through an intervening medium.
The electromagnetic radiation is normally used as an information carrier in remote sensing.
The output of a remote sensing system is usually an image representing the scene being observed.

The history of remote sensing began with the invention of photography. The term "photography" is derived from two Greek words meaning "light" (phos) and "writing" (graphien).
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 (1914 - 1918).
Artificial satellites in the latter half of the 20th century.

Remote Sensing Sensors
Active Remote Sensors :-
Active remote sensing uses an artificial source for energy.
For example the satellite itself can send a pulse of energy which can interact with the target.
In active remote sensing, humans can control the nature (wavelength, power, duration) of the source energy. Active remote sensing can be carried out during day and night and in all weather conditions.
![Page 17: Remotesensing - introduction](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062905/587245401a28ab102f8b8677/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Passive remote sensing:-
Passive remote sensing depends on a natural source to provide energy.
For example sun is the most powerful and commonly used source of energy for passive remote sensing.
The satellite sensor in this case records primarily the radiation that is reflected from the target.

Photography Radiometers Infrared
Active Remote Sensing RADAR is an acronym for "radio detection and ranging."
A radar system usually operates in the ultra-high-frequency (UHF) or microwave part of the radio-frequency (RF) spectrum, and is used to detect the position and/or movement of objects.
LIDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, is a remote sensing method that uses light in the form of a pulsed laser to measure ranges (variable distances) to the Earth.

Advantages of remote sensing:-
Provides a regional view (large areas).
Provides repetitive looks at the same area.
Remote sensors "see" over a broader. portion of the spectrum than the human eye.
Provides geo-referenced, digital, data.
Some remote sensors operate in all seasons, at night, and in bad weather.

Land Use Planning and Change
Passive sensors (Landsat, Terra, and SPOT satellites) are used in a broad range of forest and land use applications.
Landsat 7’s EMT+ sensor is especially useful in studying land use change because its data has been archived since the first Landsat mission in 1972.
Passive sensors have also been used to observe and monitor changes associated with storm, flood, and fire damage.
