The scope in the scanning

摘要

The monitoring and management of vast expanses of land, such as those managed by Defence Estates, requires an integrated approach to ensure the most appropriate use of limited resources. Whilst high quality measurements may be taken of specific areas using ground-based techniques, these do not always provide the overview required for management purposes. Remote sensing offers the opportunity of delivering a tool box approach to monitoring, targeting the required level of detail using an array of different sensor types.rnPut simply, remote sensing is the capture of data of an environment without direct contact. Remote sensing techniques vary from the very simple, for example, aerial photography, to the very complex like laser scanning for terrain height mapping.
