Description
Summary:Remote sensing is a tool or technique similar to mathematics. Using sensors to measure the amount of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) exiting an object or geographic area from a distance and then extracting valuable information from the data using mathematically and statistically based algorithms is a scientific activity. It functions in harmony with other spatial data-collection techniques or tools of the mapping sciences, including cartography and geographic information systems (GIS).
