Overview
Remote sensing is the use of aerial and satellite-based systems to measure and monitor Water resources, such as rivers, lakes, reservoirs, wetlands, and groundwater. It is a powerful tool for understanding current Water resources and how they may change in the future. Remote sensing can provide detailed images of Water for a range of purposes, including tracking changes in Water levels, identifying new sources of Water, monitoring Water pollution, and detecting illegal activities such as overfishing and industrial waste dumping. By combining remote sensing data with traditional methods of Water resources management, decision makers can make informed decisions about how to protect and use our Water resources for the benefit of all.
