The practice of identifying and monitoring an area's physical features by measuring its reflected and emitted radiation from a distance is known as remote sensing (typically from satellite or aircraft). Researchers can "sense" facts about the Earth by using special cameras to acquire remotely sensed photos. Remote sensing is a fascinating field that revolves around the acquisition of Earth-related information without direct physical contact. It typically yields either point cloud data or imagery, both of which...
