Abstract
As stated earlier (Chapter 2), the EM spectral region extending from 0.3 µm to approximately 3 µm is the solar reflection (SOR) region in terrestrial remote sensing. The Sun is the only source of energy in this spectral range, and the solar radiation scattered by the Earth’s surface is studied for ground object discrimination and mapping.
