Satellite data processing
Satellite data processing involves collecting information from sensors onboard satellites orbiting Earth. These sensors capture images, measurements of atmospheric conditions, or surface features. The raw data is transmitted to ground stations, where specialized software analyzes and converts it into useful information such as weather forecasts, environmental monitoring, or mapping. Processing includes error correction, calibration, and sometimes combining data from multiple sources to generate clear, accurate results. This allows scientists and organizations to observe and understand the planet's resources, climate, and changes over time efficiently and reliably.
