Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-008518

The science of obtaining information about Earth's surface and atmosphere from a distance, typically using sensors on satellites or aircraft. It involves measuring and analyzing electromagnetic radiation that is reflected or emitted from the target area to characterize its physical properties without direct contact. Common platforms include the Landsat and Sentinel series of satellites, which provide data across multiple spectral bands.
