Sea ice mapping is one of the important applications of remote sensing technology. Remote sensing is safe navigation for ships where ice caps are form and it is essential to understand the climate conditions of the oceans. The main function of ice mapping is to generate the maps of sea ice according to their geographical location. This paper reviews most of the recent research work on Sea ice f...

Change detection is a technology ascertaining the changes of specific features within a certain time interval. It provides the spatial distribution of features and qualitative and quantitative information of features changes. The quantitative analysis and identifying the characteristics and processes of surface changes is carried through from the different periods of remote sensing data. There ...

Thls paper explores the potential for airborne remote sensing for atmospheric sciences research. Passive and active techalques from the microwave to visible bands are discussed. It is concluded that technology has progressed sufficiently in several areas that the time Is right to develop and operate new remote sensing instruments for use by the community of atmospheric scientlste as general pur...

Small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) based remote sensing is a rapidly evolving technology. Novel sensors and methods are entering the market, offering completely new possibilities to carry out remote sensing tasks. Three-dimensional (3D) hyperspectral remote sensing is a novel and powerful technology that has recently become available to small UAVs. This study investigated the performance of UA...

The U.S. Department of Transportation seeks to determine if remote sensing can contribute to streamlining the environmental assessment process. Environmental protection is accomplished through Environmental Assessments and Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) that seek to prevent adverse environmental effects from taking place rather than mitigating problems caused by past activities or practi...
