What is Remote Sensing? Remote sensing is the process of detecting and monitoring the physical characteristics of an area by measuring its reflected and emitted radiation at a distance, or collecting images from satellites, aircraft, or Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS). Remote sensing provides the raw data (images) used in GIS to create maps, perform spatial analysis, and gain insights into our dynamic planet.

Image or Data Processing Remote Sensing Images/Data vary across data type and images. Images can be processed individually or constructed as an ortho-mosaic that is georeferenced. Lidar needs special processing to be used in GIS. Platforms that can be used for processing remote sensing data: Erdas Imagine, ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Drone2Map, and various other photogrammetry apps.
