Current Status of Remoting Sensing Application

Abstract

Remote sensing is a technique for identifying the Earth's environment and resources by gathering electromagnetic radiation data from man-made satellites, planes, and other aircraft. This makes up for the shortcomings of manual monitoring which is limited by ground conditions and small monitoring range. This paper reviews some basic technical applications of remote sensing and two major Earth observation programs that have been used in recent decades. In addition, this article also discusses the application of remote sensing in urban planning and development, plant monitoring and disaster prediction. Most of these aspects are the main application aspects of remote sensing and have a very important impact on the development of human society. Some technical and analytical deficiencies have also been discussed. Some future prospects have been raised accordingly based on these restrictions as well. These applications reflect some practical problems, and can benefit urban, agricultural, and earthquake observations to a large extent by providing new data or methods.
