Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The function of remote sensing in meteorology is
A
increase the accuracy of the data,
B
retrieve data that cannot be retrieved by the station.
C
not both
D
right both
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Remote sensing data is useful for updating existing geological maps, producing lineament and tectonic maps quickly, detecting mineral quarrying sites, and discovering fossil fuel resources.

Detailed explanation-2: -Remote sensing can be divided into two types of methods: Passive remote sensing and Active remote sensing. Passive sensors gather radiation that is emitted or reflected by the object or surrounding areas. Reflected sunlight is the most common source of radiation measured by passive sensors.

Detailed explanation-3: -Meteorologists use a vast array of remote sensing instruments to measure the atmosphere. The key to properly interpreting each data set is to understand the advantages and limitations of the instrument.
