Earth Observation and Remote Sensing
Remote sensing is a way of collecting and analysing data to get information about an object without the instrument used to collect the data being in direct contact with the object.
Remote Sensing Systems
A "system" is a composition of "components" that organized in a "flow" are utilized to obtain products usable for different purpose.
In this unit we look at the "Remote Sensing System" as a flow of activities to produce images applicable in many areas of research. We stress more in the image characteristics and properties than in the engineering of the system, however a view of all those components will be presented.
