IMPORTANCE OF REMOTE SENSING FOR SCIENCE & ENVIRONMENT
The Remote Sensing is important for understanding and managing our planet. It provides valuable data about the Earth's surface, including location, climate, temperature, and monitoring the ecosystems. This information is vital for environmental monitoring, disaster management, resource management, and even urban planning.
Upon completion of this Topic 1, participants will be able to:
a) Understand the concept of Remote Sensing as valuable information for management our natural resources.
b) Describe how the Remote Sensing Sensors protect our environment.
c) Explain how the Remote Sensing data provide consistent and repeatable measurements that enable quantitative analysis of urban planning changes over time.
