1. In Part 1 of the field study, you qualitatively compared images of sea surface temperature data. Discuss how remote sensing, in this case, was more valuable than other kinds of data collection, citing at least two ways in which remote sensing was a superior form of data collection.

Respuesta :

Remote sensing is the acquisition of information about an object or phenomenon without making physical contact with the object and thus in contrast to on-site observation, especially the Earth. Remote sensing is used in numerous fields, including geography, land surveying and most Earth Science disciplines (for example, hydrology, ecology, meteorology, oceanography, glaciology, geology); it also has military, intelligence, commercial, economic, planning, and humanitarian applications.
