Remote sensing
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003105
The acquisition of information about the Earth's surface or atmosphere using sensors that are not in direct contact with the object or area being studied. This method involves collecting data from satellites, aircraft, or drones to map geological features, monitor environmental changes, and identify potential hydrocarbon indicators. Techniques include optical imaging, radar, and thermal infrared sensing, providing broad coverage for exploration and environmental assessment.
