Introduction:- Drones are revolutionizing remote sensing and GIS applications. For example, a Drone can be used by a farmer to collect photographs of complete fields to gather insights into the state of his crop. The significant advantage of the UAV machines is that this can be done more quickly, easily, and cheaply compared to conventional … Read more
What is Desertification? Desertification refers to the deterioration of land in arid, semi-arid, and dry sub-humid environments. It is mostly caused by human activity and climate variables. Desertification is not synonymous with the growth of existing deserts. Dryland ecosystems occupy more than one-third of the world’s land area and are especially vulnerable to overexploitation and … Read more
General introduction North America, which includes Greenland and the Caribbean islands, is the world’s third-biggest continent, covering 9,358,340 square miles (24,238,000 square kilometers). It is entirely located in the Northern Hemisphere. One of the most significant features of the North American mainland, which is wholly located on the North American tectonic plate (Plate Tectonic), is … Read more
What is Climate Change? Before starting the concept of climate change first we need to understand the term climate “It is the long-term average of weather incidents in a certain region. The climate of the Earth (Structure & Composition of the Atmosphere) is not constant. It has altered several times over billions of years due … Read more
Introduction: Hyperspectral Remote Sensing Researchers and scientists utilize hyperspectral remote sensing, (also known as imaging spectroscopy), to identify terrestrial vegetation, minerals, and land use/land cover mapping. Remote sensing involves the examination of features observed in several regions of the electromagnetic spectrum (Remote Sensing Using the Thermal Infrared Spectrum Range). Hyperspectral remote sensing will boost remote … Read more
Introduction: Biodiversity The biodiversity present on Earth today is made up of many millions of diverse biological species that have evolved over four billion years. Biodiversity refers to the diversity of life on Earth, which encompasses all creatures, species, and populations, as well as genetic variation among them and their complex assemblages of communities and … Read more
Introduction: LIDAR Remote Sensing Lidar remote sensing is the modernist form of remote sensing (The Basic Concept of Remote Sensing). It stands for “light detection and ranging,” which is similar to radar (The Concept of Microwave Remote Sensing, its Geometry, and its Applications) imaging in that both families of sensors are intended to broadcast energy … Read more
Introduction: GPS Signals We have already discussed the concept of a global navigation satellite system in our previous article in full detail (Global Position System: Different Segments of GPS, its working Principle, Popular Substitute of GPS). In this article, we are going to gain knowledge regarding the concept of GPS signals, receivers, and their errors. … Read more
Introduction Global positioning system (GPS) is also known as Navigation System with Time And Ranging Global Positioning System (NAVSTAR) GPS. It is a GNSS (global satellite-based navigation system) system that covers the entire earth. GPS was originally developed for military purposes, but after some time it is being used by civilians for various purposes such … Read more
Introduction Remote sensing is the science of collecting information about any object on a surface from a well-defined distance with a proper sensor. In general, it may define as a technique of gathering data of the surface of the earth from a distance with a sensor mounted on a moving platform. Remote sensing can be … Read more
