Q & A

What is remote sensing (penginderaan jauh)?

Remote sensing is the science and art of obtaining information about objects or areas from a distance, typically through the use of sensors that do not require direct contact with the objects being studied.

How is remote sensing similar to taking a selfie?

Taking a selfie involves using a device (like a smartphone) to capture an image of oneself, whereas remote sensing uses sensors to capture images or data about the Earth's surface without physically being there.

What are the main components of a remote sensing system?

The main components include the energy source, the atmosphere, the object being observed, the platform (or vehicle) carrying the sensor, the sensor itself, data analysis, and the end users of the data.

What are the two types of energy sources used in remote sensing?

The two types of energy sources are active and passive. Active sources are human-made (like radar systems), while passive sources rely on natural energy, such as sunlight.

What role does the atmosphere play in remote sensing?

The atmosphere acts as a filter for electromagnetic waves. It absorbs some wavelengths and allows others to pass through, which can affect the quality of the data captured by sensors.

What is the significance of the 'window of the atmosphere'?

The 'window of the atmosphere' refers to specific ranges of wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation that can pass through the atmosphere without being absorbed, allowing sensors to capture clearer data.

How do different materials affect remote sensing data?

Different materials reflect or absorb electromagnetic waves differently. For example, water typically absorbs more light, making it appear darker in satellite images, while buildings may reflect more light, appearing brighter.

What is the difference between visual and digital data in remote sensing?

Visual data refers to images that can be interpreted visually (like photographs), while digital data consists of numerical values that represent various properties of the observed objects or areas.

Who are the users of remote sensing data?

Users of remote sensing data can include governmental agencies, researchers, environmental organizations, and anyone who needs spatial information for analysis or decision-making.

How can remote sensing contribute to understanding geographical features?

Remote sensing allows for the analysis of large areas quickly, providing insights into geographical features such as forests, urban areas, water bodies, and more, without the need for on-the-ground surveys.
