A satellite imaging system that beams electromagnetic at the surface and then records the energy reflected is what?
It would be Active Remote Sensing.
Way of collecting information from a distance with satellite or other devices?
remote sensing
When was Remote Sensing Center created?
Remote Sensing Center was created in 2006-09.
What is the importance of atmospheric window in remote sensing?
tells what actually happens in the atmosphere
The type of remote sensing which penetrates clouds at night for accurate terrain representation?
radar
Why would a mapmaker use active remote sensing instead of passive remote sensing?
Active remote sensing uses its own electromagnetic radiation and use microwaves. It maps areas hard to map.
What is used to gather data in an active remote-sensing system?
Hi, I'm Josephine, and I'm barely learning this, since I'm in 6 grade. A radar is used to gather data in an active remote sensing system. Funny, I have this question in my study guide. :)
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.
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.
A satellite imaging system that beams electromagnetic at the surface and then records the energy reflected is what?
It would be Active Remote Sensing.
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 are the main characteristics of microwave remote sensing and optical remote sensing?
Optical remote sensing is affected by cloud covers , rain etc but microwave remote sensing is not.However the optical sensors always need sun as a source of illumination while active microwave sensors don't need.
Way of collecting information from a distance with satellite or other devices?
remote sensing
Importance of remote sensing in civil engineering?
remote sensing
What is used to gather data in a passive remote sensing system?
gps
When was Remote Sensing Center created?
Remote Sensing Center was created in 2006-09.
When was Indian Institute of Remote Sensing created?
Indian Institute of Remote Sensing was created in 1966.
