The persistent challenge in remote sensing and cartographic science lies in reconciling the geometric fidelity of vectorized outputs with real-world cartographic specifications, while simultaneously ...

The Remote Sensing for Natural Resources certificate focuses on using satellite and aerial imagery to monitor, measure, and model natural systems. Learn how to interpret remote sensing data to support ...

Analyze images and other data to solve problems across disciplines. Imagery and other data collected by satellites, crewed aircraft, and uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) are increasingly important for ...

Active sensing encompasses the use of a transmitter and at least one receiver to measure (sense) the transmission or scattering properties of a medium at radio frequencies. In transmission ...

A floodplain map has three key components: base map imagery and/or cartographic line work, an elevation model representing the earth’s surface or “terrain,” and flood study results generated from ...

NASA researchers are literally holding the future of aerial monitoring in their hands — and it’s about 4 feet long. The agency is developing a new fleet of souped-up model airplanes that could be used ...

Brazilian researchers have developed a methodology that uses remote sensing to map the impact of frost on corn crops. This reduces exposure to climate risks and uncertainty regarding agricultural ...

The sun is very far away and extremely hot. In order to study the sun we need specialized equipment that looks at it using different wavelengths. Using different wavelengths provides us with a variety ...
