- 4. What is RemoteSensing? Remote sensing is a method of obtaining information about the properties of an object without coming into physical contact with it.
- 5. Remote Sensing isa technology for sampling electromagnetic radiation to acquire and interpret non-immediate geospatial data from which to extract information about features and objects on the Earth's land surface, oceans, and atmosphere - Dr. Nicholas Short 5
- 6. Remote Sensing RS Systemcapture radiation in different wavelength reflected/ emitted by the earth’s surface features and recorded it either directly on the film as in case of aerial photography or in digital medium used for generating the images RS provides valuable data over vast area in a short time about resources, meteorology and environment leading to better resource management and accelerating national development 6
- 7. Advantages of remotesensing 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 Sensors can focus in on a very specific bandwidth in an image or a number of bandwidths simultaneously Provides geo-referenced, digital, data Some remote sensors operate in all seasons, at night, and in bad weather

- 12. Why use Satellitesto Study the Earth? Consistent, routine, global measurements Overview of information on the hemispheric, regional, national, and local scales – the “big picture” Provide information in areas where there are no ground-based measurements Advance warning of impending environmental events and disasters Visual appeal: a picture is worth a thousand words
- 13. Satellites Provide aGlobal View Satellite data are used for many applications, including monitoring global weather, studying climate change, and observing the environment.
- 14. A Picture isWorth a Thousand Words! Satellites provide consistent, routine, global coverage of environmental events

Satellite Images • • • • • • • • Advantages Covers largeareas Cost effective Time efficient Multi-temporal Multi-sensor Multi-spectral Overcomes inaccessibility Faster extraction of GISready data • • • • Disadvantages Needs ground verification Doesn’t offer details Not the best tool for small areas Needs expert system to extract data 19

Geostationary Satellites • Inhigh altitude orbit (~35,800 km) • Orbital period of satellite matches rotational speed of Earth • Continuously observe same area on Earth • Very high temporal resolution (minutes – hours) • Usually used to monitor meteorological conditions and severe storm development, including hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods
- 28. Polar-Orbiting Satellites • Inlow altitude orbit (~700-800 km) • Orbit around North and South Poles • Earth rotates under satellite as it orbits, so each time satellite makes a pass over Earth, it observes a new area • Polar-orbiting satellites observe same area on Earth once per day (or less) • Low temporal resolution • Global coverage! • Used for a variety of applications, including air quality, land cover, water quality, and vegetation studies
- 29. How Do SatellitesMake Measurements? Satellites do not make direct measurements of the Earth’s geophysical parameters. Instead, satellites measure solar and/or terrestrial radiance (light) in a vertical column of the atmosphere. Radiance data are converted into geophysical parameters using science-based algorithms.
- 30. Remote Sensing :Challenges Satellites are very expensive to build and launch. No direct measurements – radiance (light) measurements must be converted to geophysical parameters, such as temperature or pollutant concentration. Tradeoffs between spatial and temporal resolution.

Photography using balloon, pigeon 1860: Aerial photos in Russia and the USA 1914-19: The first World War and the second World War (1939-45) had seen tremendous development in photography 1927: Robert Goddard launched the first liquid-fueled rocket. 1955: Work began on the Baikonur launch site in central Asia. 1957: Sputnik 1 launched from Baikonur (first satellite) 1961: Yuri Gagarin launched in the Vostok 1 capsule, becoming the first human in space. 1969: Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the Moon. 1971: The first Space Station in history, the Russian Salyut 1 1972: (US Landsat1) the concept of imaging from satellites is introduced 1986: France launched the first stereo-image satellite (SPOT1) 1992: The space year (the maturity of remote sensing - 20 years of operation) 1995 The Shuttle-Mir Program (1st phase of the International Space Station (ISS). 2000 The first 3 astronauts (2 Russian and one American) start to live in the ISS
