ESO Home Other Links Remote Sensing Tutorial Now more than ever, archeological research is interdisciplinary: botany, forestry, soil science, hydrology - all of which contribute to a more complete understanding of the earth, climate shifts, and how people adapt to large regions. As a species, we've been literally blind to the universe around us. If the known electromagnetic spectrum were scaled up to stretch around the Earth's circumference, the human eye would see a portion equal to the diameter of a pencil. Our ability to build detectors that see for us where we can't see, and computers that bring the invisible information back to our eyesight, will ultimately contribute to our survival on Earth and in space. Remote sensing can be a discovery technique, since the computer can be programmed to look for distinctive "signatures" of energy emitted by a known site or feature in areas where surveys have not been conducted. Such "signatures" serve as recognition features or fingerprints. Such characteristics as elevation, distance from water, distance between sites or cities, corridors, and transportation routes can help to predict the location of potential archeological sites. Computational techniques used to analyze data.

The Remote Sensing Pages. http://jan.ucc.nau.edu/~geog-p/geog/RemoteSensing/ Remote sensing is defined as the technique of obtaining information about objects through the analysis of data collected by special instruments that are not in physical contact with the objects of investigation. As such, remote sensing can be regarded as "reconnaissance from a distance," "teledetection," or a form of the common adage "look but don't touch." Remote sensing thus differs from in situ sensing, where the instruments are immersed in, or physically touch, the objects of measurement. A common examples of an

Extractions: Remote Sensing and Technology NPS GIS Remote Sensing Remotely sensed data is used by NPS for many purposes, primarily in collaborative projects with USGS, NASA, and academic institutions. These include mapping vegetation Remote sensing is simply measuring objects from a distance, where the measuring device is not in direct contact with the object being measured. Remote sensing devices can be active or passive. Active devices emit electromagnetic radiation and measure reflectance (or lack of reflectance) from an object. These include active systems like: radar, LIDAR, sonar devices that detect fish or water depth, and medical imaging devices. Passive systems measure ambient electromagnetic radiation emitted from an object. Passive devices include airborne photography, most satellite-based sensors, and photography (without a flash). Most broadly defined, remotely sensed data includes any measurement made from a distance. This definition can include sounds, smells, and other types of observations, but this site focuses on data that can usually be displayed as an image. NPS most commonly uses data from sensors that measure spectral attributes in the visible and near-visible range, and these data are usually acquired from airplane or satellite-mounted sensors. Data from both passive and active sensors are routinely used by NPS. Use of remotely sensed data clearly will be increasingly important to NPS. The goal of this web site and of the Remote Sensing Subcommittee is to facilitate and improve use of RS data by:

Klein is an assistant professor of economics and Pia Maria Koskenoja is a doctoral student of transportation economics at the University of California, Irvine. Executive Summary The 1992 amendments to the Clean Air Act mandated that local governments that violate federal ozone (urban smog) standards abide by a dizzying array of regulations, many of the most controversial of whichcentralized state inspection and maintenance programs, carpooling requirements, zero- emission vehicle sales quotas, use of alternative fuels, and new-vehicle emission standardsare intended to control automobile emissions. Both empirical evidence and candid reflection suggest that current approaches to vehicle pollution are extremely inefficient, economically costly, and of only limited help in improving air quality. The use of remote sensors, mobile, roadside emission-sensing devices, could do more to improve air quality than all other approaches combined at only a fraction of the cost. Moreover, a remote-sensing program would embody the concept that the polluternot society at largeshould pay for pollution. But remote sensing is largely neglected by the Clean Air Act.
