Thematic Mapper

Thematic Mapper is an instrument used in satellites to gather detailed information about the Earth's surface. It captures images in various wavelengths, including visible light and infrared, allowing scientists to analyze land use, vegetation, water bodies, and urban development. This data helps in mapping and monitoring environmental changes, agriculture, and urban planning. By classifying different features on the Earth's surface, Thematic Mapper provides valuable insights that can aid in research, resource management, and environmental protection. Essentially, it transforms raw satellite images into useful information about our planet.
