GI8303 FUNDAMENTALS OF REMOTE SENSING 

UNIT I REMOTE SENSING AND ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION 

Definition – components of RS – History of Remote Sensing – Merits and demerits of data collation between conventional and remote sensing methods - Electromagnetic Spectrum – wave theory, particle theory, Stefan – Boltzmann Law and Wien’s Law – visible and non visible spectrum – Radiation sources: active & passive; Radiation Quantities 

UNIT II EMR INTERACTION WITH ATMOSPHERE 

Standard atmospheric profile – main atmospheric regions and its characteristics – interaction of radiation with atmosphere - Scattering (Rayleigh, Mie, non-selective scattering) absorption and

refraction – Atmospheric effects on visible, infrared, thermal and microwave spectrum – Atmospheric windows.

UNIT III EMR INTERACTION WITH EARTH MATERIAL 

Energy balance equation – Specular and diffuse reflectors – Spectral reflectance & emittance –

Spectroradiometer / Spectrophotometer – Spectral Signature concepts – Typical spectral reflectance curves for vegetation, soil and water body – Factors affecting spectral reflectance of vegetation, soil and water body.

UNIT IV PLATFORMS AND SENSORS 

Ground based platforms –Airborne platforms – Space borne platforms – Classification of satellites

– Sun synchronous and Geosynchronous satellites – Resolution concepts – Scanners - Along and across track scanners – Orbital and sensor characteristics of different satellites – Airborne and Space borne TIR sensors – Calibration – S/N ratio – Passive/Active microwave sensing – Airborne and satellite borne RADAR –SAR –LIDAR , UAV – High Resolution Sensors

UNIT V DATA PRODUCTS AND VISUAL INTERPRETATION 

Photographic (film and paper) and digital products – quick look products - High Resolution data products data - ordering – interpretation – basic characteristics of image elements – interpretation

keys (selective and elimination) – visual interpretation of natural resources.
