Remote sensing makes it possible to collect data on dangerous or inaccessible areas. This includes monitoring deforestation in areas such as the Amazon Basin, the effects of climate change on the Arctic and Antarctic regions.

What is term for the process of gathering information through images taken at a distance?
Remote sensing
How is active remote sensing different from passive remote sensing?
Passive remote sensing picks up wave lengths of the light spectrum occurring on their own such light in photography. Active remote sensing will send out a wavelength of the spectrum and measure how it bounces back like radar.
What is the difference between active and passive remote sensing systems in geography?
Active remote sensing transmits energy to allow an image to be formed. Passive remote sensing collects energy reflected or emitted from a surface. Active systems direct a bean of energy at a surface and analyze the energy reflected back. An example of active sensing would be a radar. Passive systems are pretty much what the eyes see, and it's like a photograph. Passive sensing radiates visible light.
What is the opposite from remote sensing?

When was Remote Sensing Center created?
Remote Sensing Center was created in 2006-09.
Active and passive remote sensing?
Remote sensing transmits energy that allows an image to be formed. Passive remote sensing collects energy that is reflected or emitted from a surface.
When was Indian Institute of Remote Sensing created?
Indian Institute of Remote Sensing was created in 1966.

What are Remote Sensing observational platforms?
The platforms that harbor remote sensing sensors (eg. cameras) are called remote sensing platforms. In earlier days, during military reconnaissance, pigeons attached with cameras were made to fly over areas of interest. In this case the platform is the bird. Balloons, airplanes and satellites that carry remote sensing sensors are examples of remote sensing platforms.
