Remote Sensing
Learn the concepts of remote sensing analysis and image classification with a focus on satellites, LiDAR, and drones.
Feature
How GPS Receivers Work – Trilateration vs Triangulation
Have you ever wondered how your GPS receiver works? They use a technique called trilateration, which measures distances, not angles as in triangulation.
Satellites
50 Satellites in Space: Types and Uses of Satellites
A list of the 50 most iconic satellites put up into space to monitor our planet. We show the uses and types of satellites like weather and GPS satellites.
Satellites & Sensors: AVHRR | Copernicus | IKONOS | Landsat 8 | MODIS | Pleiades | Sentinel 2 | SPOT | SRTM | Worldview
LiDAR
15 LiDAR Uses and Applications
We reveal 15 LiDAR uses and applications. LiDAR isn’t a new technology, but it’s been growing so much lately that even your smartphone has it
Remote Sensing Analysis
What is Photogrammetry?
Photogrammetry uses photographs from at least two different vantage points. It obtains depth and perspective because of separate points of observation.
Remote Sensing Types
Learn Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) by Example
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is an emerging technology in remote sensing with the advantage to see in any weather condition and even at night.
Image Classification
Spectral Signature Cheatsheet – Spectral Bands in Remote Sensing
Every object has its own unique composition. This is equivalent to it having its own spectral signature. Choose the spectral bands for ideal classification
