 sensing. Here the sensors do not emit energy by itself.
Active Remote Sensing
 Remote Sensing made with the aid of artificial sou rce of energy radiating from the sensor is
knoivn as active remote sensing.
Classification of Remote Sensing based on the platform
Terrestrial Photography
 The method of obtaining the earth's topography using cameras from the ground is known as
terrestrial photography.
Aerial Remote Sensing
 The method of obtaining photographs of the earth's surface continouslyfrom the sky by using
cameras mounted on aircrafts is known as aerial remote sensing.
Satelite Remote Sensing

Or
 Geographic Information System is a computer based information management system by which
the data collected from the sources of information like maps, aerial photographs, satellite
imageries, tables, surveys etc. are incorporated in to the computer using softwares, which are
retrieved, analyzed and displayed in the form of maps, tables and graphs.
 All data analysis with GIS are done based on two kinds of data. 1. Spatial data, 2. Attributes
 By using GIS, we can
 compile data from different sources
 update and incorporate data easily
 conduct thematic studies
 represent geographic features spatially
 generate visual models of future phenomena and processes
 based on the data collected
 prepare maps, tables, and graphs
