Posted on 2016-03-16 by ajggeoger in Remote sensing

Numerous satellite Earth observation missions have been undertaken since the first Landsat satellite was launched in 1972. Each one of these has built on the previous mission, with the radiometric, spatial and temporal capabilities of the systems being continually improved.

As I passed on mature tree I […]
