Course aims:
Collection of data by a sensing device not in contact with the object being sensed, and the evaluation of the collected data, which is then termed information and is presented in map form or as statistics
he aim of environmental remote sensing is to utilize sensors, which are mounted on aerial platforms, to identify and/or measure parameters of an object according to variations in the electromagnetic radiation (EMR) emitted by, or reflected from the object.
The amount of electromagnetic energy emitted is a function of the object's temperature - as temperatures increase, the intensity of the radiation emitted increases.
