Explore: Remote Sensing Techniques

of remote sensing techniques allows archaeologists to uncover unique data that is unobtainable using traditional archaeological excavation techniques. Remote

Remote sensing is the acquisition of information about an object or phenomenon without making physical contact with the object, in contrast to in situ

topographic contrast rather than biological or chemical changes. Modern remote sensing techniques—such as LiDAR, NDVI, and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)—are often

dependent on remote sensing devices, still requires in field techniques to accurately determine the validity of the data. These tools and techniques range from

on water remote sensing techniques and the determination of concentration of water quality parameters from observed spectral remote sensing data. Thus

Remote sensing is used in the geological sciences as a data acquisition method complementary to field observation, because it allows mapping of geological
