Introduction• Definition: Remote Sensing is the science
of obtaining information about an area, object, or phenomenon through the analysis of data acquired by a device which is not in contact with the object, area, or phenomenon under investigation.
• Energy, mainly from the sun, propagates through the atmosphere, reflected or re-emitted from the objects, and recorded by “sensors”.

The Electromagnetic Spectrum
• Visible wave lengths are very limited , 0.4 to 0.7 mm, Near IR 0.7 to 1.3 mm, mid IR 1.3 to 3 mm. They both could be recorded on films.
• Thermal IR is mainly emitted from an object, needs thermal scanning.
• Microwaves are very long waves 1mm to 1m• Most common sensing systems operate in one or several of
the visible, IR, or microwave portions of the spectrum.• Energy emitted by the sun is within the visible portion,
earth’s emitted energy is within the thermal IR portion.

Spectral Reflectance• The ratio between the reflected energy and
the incident energy at a certain wave length.• A certain object will have different spectral
reflectance at different wave lengths• Different objects will have different spectral
Reflectance at the same wave length• Examples: Deciduous and coniferous trees,
vegetation, soil and water. • Why do we see “green”.• What is spectral signature?

Thermal and Multispectral scanners
• Thermal scanners will detect the emitted energy in the thermal IR band.
• Multispectral scanners will detect the reflected energy in the visible, IR and microwave bands, includes a number of detectors corresponding to the number of bands detected.
• Thermal IR multispectral scanners.• Imaging Spectrometry: acquisition in many, very narrow,
contiguous spectral bands from visible to mid IR

Earth Resource Satellites• There are several types of satellites above you: communications,
remote sensing, GPS, radio and TV, ..• US “LnadSat”:
– Ground coverage 185 km x 185 km. Equals to 1600 photos at 1: 20,000 with no overlap.
– Sensors: MSS, TM, best resolution: 30 m in black and white, LandSat 7: 15 m
• French “Spot”:– Ground coverage is 60 x 60 km– Sensors: High Resolution Visible (HRV). Operates within a
limited band width: 0.51 to 0.89. Resolution of 10 m in B/W, spot 5: 2.5m
![Page 15: Remote Sensing](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110404/5681306b550346895d964a09/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Spot has a better spatial resolution and less spectral resolution than LandSat
• Spot imaging system could be oriented to survey a certain area at a certain time and to produce stereo pairs.
• Other available systems, some with higher accuracy Such as IKONOS, figure 27-23, 1 m resolution, and Spin-2 2m resolution.
• Quick Bird: Resolution up to 60 cm is commercially available today.
