Detailed explanation-1: -Satellite images (also Earth observation imagery, spaceborne photography, or simply satellite photo) are images of Earth collected by imaging satellites operated by governments and businesses around the world.
Detailed explanation-2: -: pictures taken from satellites.
Detailed explanation-3: -Satellite imagery: Images of the Earth taken from artificial satellites orbiting the planet. Important for GIS and remote sensing. Remote sensing: Studying an object or location without making physical contact with it. For example, satellites have mapped the ocean floor by studying gravity waves.
Detailed explanation-4: -Satellite imagers use remote sensing to collect information about Earth from above. GOES-R Series satellites carry an instrument called the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI), which measures energy at different wavelengths along the electromagnetic spectrum.
Detailed explanation-5: -Satellite images show natural surface features such as deserts, forests, and grasslands. They also show human-created or anthropogenic features including urban areas, reservoirs, and agricultural regions.
Detailed explanation-6: -1 Visible. The first type of satellite imagery, VIS, is based upon the principle of reflected sunlight. 2 Infrared. All objects with a temperature greater than absolute zero radiate energy. 3 Water Vapor. The third and final type of satellite imagery discussed in this text is WV imagery.
