Why Collecting Data?
One goal of resource management is to protect the
environment and improve human quality of life.
Gain knowledge about previous/current status and
underlying processes.
Observations and measurements:
the physical world (e.g. atmosphere, water, soil, rock),
its living inhabitants (e.g. humans, flora, fauna),
the processes at work (e.g. cycles of matter, erosion, deforestation, flooding, urban sprawl).
What is Remote Sensing?
Electromagnetic Radiation
vc
c = speed of light, 3 * 108 [m s-1] = wavelength [µm] = frequency [s-1]
(Campbell 2006)
• Note that frequency is inversely proportional to
wavelength .
The longer the wavelength, the lower the frequency,
and vice-versa
Sources of Electromagnetic Radiation
Stefan-Boltzmann law
𝑀𝜆 = 𝜎𝑇4
M = Total emitted radiation [W m-2] = Stefan-Boltzmann constant, 5.6697 * 10-8 [W m-2 K-4]
T = Temperature [K]
Jensen. Remote Sensing of the Environment. Prentice Hall, 2009
Sources of Electromagnetic Radiation
Jensen 2009
Wien´s displacement law
𝑚𝑎𝑥 =𝑎𝑇
max = Wavelength with max emitted energy [µm]
a = constant, 2897.8 [ µm K] T = temperature [K]
Sensors in Space

In Situ or Remote Sensing Data?
Summer (May-Sept) chlorophyll a concentrations in European seas from in situ data
Summer (May-Sept) chlorophyll a concentrations in European seas from SeaWIFS data
(Data from Coppini et al. 2013. The use of ocean colour data to estimate chl-a trends in European Seas. Int J Geosci 4:927-949)
In Situ or Remote Sensing Data?
In situ measurements
• punctual, no defined extent
• representative?
• accurate?
Remote sensing
• integral measurement of defined area
• accurate?
In situ data = evidence?
Keep in mind that this reference is
inaccurate!

Seas. Int J Geosci 4:927-949)
R²=0.53 Bias = 1.10 [mg m-3] RMSE = 4.46 [mg m-3]
RS at Different Geographic Scales

SR = 0.5 m SR = 30 m SR = 1500 m SR = 5000 m SR = 30 m

Global coverage requires mosaicking of
images acquired in one orbital cycle

Why is Remote Sensing Important?
Radiation Beyond our Visual Perception
Near-infrared (700 – 1100 nm) Natural color (400 – 700 nm)
Why Differ Satellite Images from Photographs?
Landsat TM 5 images of central China: true colour image using TM bands 3,2 and 1
Landsat TM 5 image of central China: false colour image using TM bands 4,3 and 2
RS sensors can collect electromagnetic radiation which humans cannot see
The Electromagnetic Spectrum

hchQ
Q = Radiation intensity [J]
h = Planck constant 6.626 * 10-34 [Js] v = frequency [s-1] = wavelength [µm]
Textbook Spectral Reflectances
(RSACL 2000)
Reflectance = The part of incoming radiation reflected by the Earth‘s surface [%]

Spectral Bands

water
The above sensor provides six bands in the solar domain
All bands obtained at same time and at exact same location
All pixel have same spatial resolution (at least with most sensors)
Spectral resolution (how many bands covering which wavelengths)
Spectral Bands
Band 1
Band 2 Band 3
Band 7
Band 4 Band 5
If a single band is displayed on the monitor it appears in grey values
Bright pixel represent areas where a lot of radiation is being reflected
in that particular band
