You learn about remote sensing, which involves collecting information about the Earth without direct contact using satellites, sensors, and electromagnetic radiation. The chapter explains how satellites capture images of the Earth and how these images help in studying landforms, vegetation, water bodies, and urban areas.
You also study the basic components of remote sensing, including sensors, satellite platforms, and image resolution, and how geographers interpret satellite images to analyze geographical patterns.
