ISciences > Remote Sensing > About Remote Sensing
Remote sensing technologies have become indispensable tools for monitoring the terrestrial environment. Images of Earth obtained from space provide the capability to regularly and systematically observe the condition of ecosystems, along with measuring the impact of human interactions with the environment.

ISciences offers proven experience in image processing and remote sensing. From evaluating sensor configurations, to determining the best way to solve a measurement problem, to developing application-specific algorithms, to exploiting measurements that an imaging sensor makes - we help our customers realize the ultimate application of these important technologies.

One of the benefits of remote sensing is the ability to collect data in parts of the electromagnetic spectrum beyond the range of the human eye. In this example, both pine and iron were painted with the same green paint. To the human eye, they look -- you guessed it -- green. However, in the MWIR region, the paint is fairly transparent and the "signature" of the underlying material is apparent. [Data from NEFDS]
