One of the main tasks of Earth observation is the monitoring of objects and phenomena on its surface. The regularity of the satellite remote sensing allows for constant monitoring and quick detection and evaluation of changes in natural and transformed landscapes. This information is very useful and is applied in land use management, forest management, […]
Determination of humus content in soils based on remote sensing materials is the most detailed methodological and practical section of the remote monitoring of soils. It is already widely used in practice and has credible results. With the right technology, the error of remote humus determination is not greater than the error of laboratory analytical […]
Like many others, we are fascinated by Google Timelapse. And decided to write a few words about this service and give a small digest of links reviewing it. On the 29th of November Google have announced the update to their Timelapse feature. Now everyone can travel in space-time, going back in time 32 years, up to […]
Today we will talk a little about archeology. Usually this science is associated with digging up something very old to see if it sheds any light at the past historic events or the way we interpret them. A while ago I had a chance to work at archaeological sites myself. But girls usually get a […]
Bodies emit radiation. The warmer the body the more the emittance. When we look at the Sun, or even feel it on our skin without actually seeing it, we definitely know that it emits radiation. Especially when we forget about sunscreen. From Wien’s displacement law we can learn that the peak radiation of a black […]
Today, geographic information technologies in Ukraine are still seen as novelty. Considering how widely and how often they are used across the industries, then this statement is quite true. And even though there is a wide range of open source application solutions available, representatives of various sectors rarely use GIS for process optimization. One reason […]
Intro to Remote Sensing. Part 2. This post is a part of small series on Earth observation basics. In it you might find out why the sky is black in the cover picture, learn a bit about the interaction of the Earth’s atmosphere and electromagnetic radiation, and what happens due to this interaction. As […]
