What is Photogrammetry? https://gisgeography.com/what-is-photogrammetry/ https://gisgeography.com/what-is-photogrammetry/#comments Thu, 24 Sep 2020 10:22:54 +0000 https://gisgeography.com/?p=20498 Photogrammetry uses photographs from at least two different vantage points. It obtains depth and perspective because of separate points of observation.

The Atmospheric Window in Remote Sensing https://gisgeography.com/atmospheric-window/ https://gisgeography.com/atmospheric-window/#comments Sun, 02 Apr 2017 11:42:35 +0000 http://gisgeography.com/?p=14363 The atmospheric window allows specific bands of electromagnetic (EM) radiation to reach the Earth. On the other hand, absorption bands prevent EM radiation.

Light Reflection, Absorption and Transmission in Remote Sensing https://gisgeography.com/energy-interaction-remote-sensing-light-reflection-absorption-transmission/ https://gisgeography.com/energy-interaction-remote-sensing-light-reflection-absorption-transmission/#respond Tue, 16 Aug 2016 01:53:27 +0000 http://gisgeography.com/?p=15488 The EM radiation that makes it to Earth is called incident light. From here, Earth's features reflect, absorb and transmit different amounts of energy.
