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.
Remote Sensing Types
Hyperspectral Imaging from Space
Hyperspectral imaging takes a spectrum of light and divides the light into hundreds of narrow spectral bands. For example, Hyperion has 242 bands at 30m GSD.
Remote Sensing of the Environment: Local and Global Environmental Issues
As our population grows and climate is at risk, remote sensing of the environment solves large-scale environmental issues for the land, ocean and atmosphere.
What is Remote Sensing? The Definitive Guide
Remote sensing is the science of obtaining information without physically being there. The 3 most common methods of capture is airplane, satellite & drones.
Passive vs Active Sensors in Remote Sensing
Active sensors illuminates its target and measures that reflected backscatter to the sensor. Passive sensors measure natural energy from the sun.
Multispectral vs Hyperspectral Imagery Explained
Multispectral vs Hyperspectral imagery. Hyperspectral contains hundreds of narrow bands. Multispectral usually consists of only 3 to 10 wider bands.
