Satellite Remote Sensing

Satellite remote sensing involves using satellites orbiting Earth to collect data about the planet's surface and atmosphere. These satellites are equipped with sensors that detect different types of energy, like light and heat, which are reflected or emitted by objects on Earth. This information is transmitted back to ground stations, allowing us to monitor weather, track environmental changes, map land use, and study natural resources from a global perspective. It provides a powerful tool for scientists, governments, and organizations to observe and understand Earth's dynamic systems without direct contact.
