The Foundation of RS
Spectral signatures – Each object on earth has a particular reflectance or emittance when exposed to a particular region of the EMR. This would be unique to that object which is called its spectral signature.
Bands - Each sensor in a satellite contain wavelength ranges in which information in the form of spectral signatures are stored. This is band. A sensor can have many bands of the EMS.
![Page 14: Soil separability through remote sensing for land evaluation](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f049041a28aba8138b4689/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

The Foundation of RSAtmospheric windows-Atmospheric window is that portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be transmitted through the atmosphere with least distortion or absorption.
Spatial resolution - Spatial resolution states about the clarity of an image.

RS technologies - Optical sensors (a) Hyperspectral imaging
Hyperspectral imaging: Passive RS technology, acquiring simultaneous images in many spectrally contiguous, registered bands such that for each pixel a reflectance spectrum can be derived.
![Page 20: Soil separability through remote sensing for land evaluation](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030310/58f049041a28aba8138b4689/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Optical sensors(b) Multi spectral imaging- Passive RS
Multi spectral imaging - Record data in fewer bands, resulting in a coarser spectral resolution compared to hyper spectral sensors.

Conclusions
Conventional mapping can greatly benefit from RS, especially nowadays where many different satellite images and aerial photographs are available with different spatial, spectral, and temporal resolutions.
Different unexplored fields of RS are under research and definitely promising tools for mapping soils in the near future.
RS tools are very useful for soil mapping in conventional and DSM.
RS and Pedometrics are directly linked in generating ancillary data layers for mapping soils. Thus, they have huge potential in soil mapping.
