Remote-Sensing (101)
“The art and science of obtaining information about an object without being in direct contact with the object” (Jensen 2000).
For our purposes…… the collection of information about Earth
surfaces and phenomena using sensors not in physical contact with the surfaces and phenomena of interest.

Remote-Sensing (101)
Our Discussion largely limited to two main Sources of Remotely-Sensed data:
1) Aerial Photography(Analog)
2) Satellite Imagery(Digital)

Reflection, Absorption (and Re-Emission) of EMR
EMR that is returned from the surface with angle that is equal and opposite to the angle of incidence.
Reflection includes scattering (diffuse reflection) as well as specular (mirror-like) reflection
Absorption is the retention of energy by a body. Involves transformation of some energy to heat,
with the re-emission of the remainder of the energy.
Emitted energy is always lower energy than absorbed energy, corresponding to black-body radiation for the temperature of the body

Remote-Sensing (101) Active: E’ emitted and return is measured
(e.g., radar, sonar)
Passive: E’ not emitted, but only collected (e.g., photography, satellite imagery)

Remote sensing uses the radiant energy that is reflected and emitted from objects at various “wavelengths” of the electromagnetic spectrum
Our eyes are only sensitive to the “visible light” portion of the EM spectrum
Why do we use nonvisible wavelengths (later)?

Geometric distortion Aerial photo gives us perspective view (it
distorts geometry of geographic features)
Transformation (Rectification) from central to parallel perspective results in planimetrically correct photo or orthophoto

RECTIFICATION
The output (raw data, level 0) from an airborne line scanner has a jumbled appearance; the ground footprints are not parallel, owing to the movement of the aircraft.

DOQ
A digital, uniform-scale image created from an aerial photograph. They are true photographic maps—effects of tilt and relief are removed by a mathematical process called rectification. The uniform scale of a DOQ allows accurate measures of distances. DOQQ = ¼ quad.

Spectral SignaturesThe amount of solar radiation that it reflects, absorbs, transmits, or emits varies with wavelength. When that amount (usually intensity, as a percent of maximum) coming from the material is plotted over a range of wavelengths, the connected points produce a curve called the material's spectral signature (spectral response curve).USGS Digital Spectral Library: http://speclab.cr.usgs.gov/spectral-lib.html
![Page 32: A condensed overview With support from: NSF DUE-0903270 Prepared by: in partnership with: George McLeod Geospatial Technician Education Through Virginias](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062619/551678445503469d698b5a77/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

The Four Resolutions
1. Spatial Resolution: what size we can resolve (pixel size)
2. Spectral Resolution: what wavelengths do we use (number of spectral bands)
3. Radiometric Resolution: detail recordable for each bandwidth (bits/band)
4. Temporal Resolution: how often are data collected
![Page 35: A condensed overview With support from: NSF DUE-0903270 Prepared by: in partnership with: George McLeod Geospatial Technician Education Through Virginias](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062619/551678445503469d698b5a77/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Spatial Resolution
The fineness of detail visible in an image.(coarse) Low resolution(fine) High resolution
Factors affecting spatial resolution:Atmosphere, haze, smoke, low light, particles or blurred sensor systems
General rule of thumb: the spatial resolution should be less than half of the size of the smallest object of interest

RADIOMETRIC RESOLUTION
Radiometric resolution, or radiometric sensitivity refers to the number of digital levels used to express the data collected by the sensor.
The greater the number of levels, the greater the detail of information.

HYPERSPECTRAL SCANNERS
Detects tens or hundreds of narrow contiguous spectral bands simultaneously.
Imaging spectroscopy has been used in the laboratory by physicists and chemists for over 100 years for identification of materials and their composition.
Spectroscopy can be used to detect individual absorption features due to specific chemical bonds in a solid, liquid, or gas. With advancing technology, imaging spectroscopy has begun to focus on identifying and mapping Earth surface features.
