FLARE is a new capability for performing the vicarious radiometric calibration of high, medium, and low spatial resolution sensors. The SPecular Array Radiometric Calibration (SPARC) method employs ...

The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency is funding a team of Rochester Institute of Technology imaging scientists to study the limits of spectral remote sensing imaging systems. Led by principal ...

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, have revolutionized spatial data collection in recent years by offering flexible, low-cost platforms for aerial imagery and remote sensing.

Remote sensing (satellite and ground-based) is increasingly being used as a technique to probe the Earth's atmosphere, ocean and land surfaces. Probing of other planets is accomplished largely by ...

NASA will soon launch a one-of-a-kind instrument, called Arcstone, to improve the quality of data from Earth-viewing sensors in orbit. In this technology demonstration, the mission will measure ...

In a vineyard in the Finger Lakes region of New York, a robot trundles along. Resembling a cable-covered WALL-E with a superlong neck, the rolling bot features sensors on top that scan a row of ...
