Natural Resource Monitoring of Rheum tanguticum by Multilevel Remote Sensing

Remote sensing has been extensively applied in agriculture for its objectiveness and promptness. However, few applications are available for monitoring natural medicinal plants. In the paper, a multilevel monitoring system, which includes satellite and aerial remote sensing, as well as ground investigation, was initially proposed to monitor natural Rheum tanguticum resource in Baihe Pasture, Zo...

Low Cost UAV-based Remote Sensing for Autonomous Wildlife Monitoring

In recent years, developments in unmanned aerial vehicles, lightweight on-board computers, and low-cost thermal imaging sensors offer a new opportunity for wildlife monitoring. In contrast with traditional methods now surveying endangered species to obtain population and location has become more cost-effective and least time-consuming. In this paper, a low-cost UAV-based remote sensing platform...

Remote Sensing and Environmental Monitoring

Remotely sensed data have two significant characteristics. Firstly, they are available in digital form, which allows them to be manipulated by computer. Secondly, they provide a range of information derived from observations made using electromagnetic radiation (EMR) with wavelengths ranging from those of the visible wavebands (0.4–0.7 μm) to the microwave region (3–30 cm). Modulation of incomi...

Rangeland Monitoring Using Remote Sensing

application of remote sensing in monitoring of faults

the siyah bisheh area is located in central part of alborz zone, 40km south of amol, iran. rock units exposing in the area consists of sedimentary (carbonates, sandstone, siltstone), volcano- sedimentary (andesite to andesitic tuff, tuff), ignimbrite and basalt. when erosion and tectonics have rendered volcanic structures undetectable, remote sensing provides an invaluable tool for their ide...
