  2. Land cover maps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_cover_maps

    A supervised classification is a system of classification in which the user builds a series of randomly generated training datasets or spectral signatures representing different land-use and land-cover (LULC) classes and applies these datasets in machine learning models to predict and spatially classify LULC patterns and evaluate classification accuracies.

    Carrying the same Multi spectral Scanner (MSS) but also carrying an Enhanced Thematic Mapper, which added a 15m resolution panchromatic band. Landsat 7: 15 April 1999: active: 25 years, 5 months and 27 days: Operating with scan line corrector disabled since May 2003. [13] The main component on Landsat 7 was the Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+).

  4. Sentinel-2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentinel-2

    The mission supports services and applications such as agricultural monitoring, emergencies management, land cover classification, and water quality. Sentinel-2 has been developed and is being operated by the European Space Agency. The satellites were manufactured by a consortium led by Airbus Defence and Space in Friedrichshafen, Germany.

  5. Normalized difference vegetation index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalized_difference...

    The normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) is a widely-used metric for quantifying the health and density of vegetation using sensor data. It is calculated from spectrometric data at two specific bands: red and near-infrared. The spectrometric data is usually sourced from remote sensors, such as satellites.

  6. Remote sensing in geology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_sensing_in_geology

    Richat Structure by Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM). Instead of being a meteorite impact, the landform is more likely to be a collapsed dome fold structure.. Remote sensing is used in the geological sciences as a data acquisition method complementary to field observation, because it allows mapping of geological characteristics of regions without physical contact with the areas being ...

  7. Remote sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_sensing

    Current Landsat collection is that of seven bands, including several in the infrared spectrum, ranging from a spectral resolution of 0.7 to 2.1 μm. The Hyperion sensor on Earth Observing-1 resolves 220 bands from 0.4 to 2.5 μm, with a spectral resolution of 0.10 to 0.11 μm per band. Radiometric resolution

  8. Multispectral imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multispectral_imaging

    Multispectral image of Bek crater and its ray system on the surface of Mercury, acquired by MESSENGER, combining images at wavelengths of 996, 748, 433 nm. The bright yellow patches in other parts of the image are hollows. Multispectral imaging captures image data within specific wavelength ranges across the electromagnetic spectrum.

  9. Operational Land Imager - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operational_Land_Imager

    Specifications and design. OLI is a pushbroom sensor that operates in the visible (VIS) and short wave infrared (SWIR) spectral regions. [4] It has a swath width of 185-kilometer (115 mi), which means it can image the entire Earth over a repeating cycle of 16 days. [5] The OLI has nine spectral bands, including a panchromatic band:
