Abstract:
Description of the various types of recording instruments and their characteristics, including spatial, spectral, radiometric, and temporal resolution. The chapter also categorizes satellites based on their mode of operation and radiation detection (passive and active sensing systems). It presents the most important Earth observation satellite systems (e.g., Landsat, SPOT, QuickBird, Envisat, TerraSAR-X, etc.), the sensors they carry (e.g., ETM+, ASTER, SPOT, MODIS, QuickBird, etc.), and their technical specifications.
