By: Sand, Charlene

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.

This book provides comprehensive information about meteorological remote sensing systems in the Earth's orbit. Remote sensing refers to the acquisition of information of an object or phenomenon. It uses either recording or real-time sensing devices that are not in physical contact with the object, an example of which is the Earth Observing System (EOS). Read about other remote sensing projects including the SeaWiFS, Landsat 7, QuickBird, and much more.
