测绘工程专业英语第28单元一遥感的基础 Fundamentals of Remote Sensing (Remote Sensing) What Is Remote Sensing? For the purposes of understanding the concepts of remote sensi ng, the follow in g definition should be give nf irst: [CCRS, 2003] Remote sensing is the science (among, and art) of acquiring information about the Earth s surface without later being in con tact with it. This is done by sensi ng and recording reflected or emitted energy and processing, analyzing, and applying that infomiation. To understand the concept of remote sensing, give the following definition: (Canadian remote sensing center, 2003) Remote sensing is in the case of no direct contact, access to information of a science of the earth* s surface (to some degree can be called art)? This is done through perception, recording and processing, analysis, and using energy from the reflection or information. 〃 In much of remote sensing, the process involves an interaction between incident radiation and the targets of interest? This is exemplified by the use of imaging systems where the following seven elements are involved. The Note, or that the remote sensing also involves the sensing of emitted energy and the use of non - imaging sensors (Figure 1). In most remote sensing, the process invoIves the interaction of incident radiation and the area of interest. This can be exemplified in an imaging system that USES the following seven elements? Note that remote sensing also includes the perception of radiation energy and the use of non-imaging sensors? The Energy source or tiny illumination (A) - the first requirement for remote sensing is to have an Energy source which iliuminates or provides electromagnetic Energy to the target of interest? The primary source of electromagnetic Energy that illuminates natural the targets by the sun, over the Earth itself can emit geothermal and man - made Energy. Electromagnetic radiation is A form of Energy. Energy source or illumination - the first requirement for remote sensing i
