Remote sensing is the science of deriving information about the earth’s land and water areas from images acquired at a distance. It usually relies upon measurement of electromagnetic energy reflected or emitted from the features of interest (Campbell 1987).”
Remote sensing is a very broadly based field. Professionals with backgrounds in such diverse areas as agriculture, archaeology, business, ecology, engineering, forestry, geography, geology, range management, urban and regional planning, water resources, wetland ecology, wildlife management, manufacturing and machine vision, meteorology, and oceanography use the information processed from remotely sensing data. In addition, many remote sensing scientists are involved in basic research developing new sensor systems, other instruments, and defining new analytical techniques. Many such people are also actively engaged in the area of digital image processing, which is changing rapidly with major improvements in the power of computer systems, networks, and visualization techniques.
