WEATHER FORCASTING
Weather forecasting is the application of
science and technology to predict the state of
the atmosphere for a future time and a given
location.
Weather forecasts are made by collecting
quantitative data about the current state of the
atmosphere and using scientific understanding
of atmospheric processes to project how the
atmosphere will evolve.

DOPPLER RADAR
Doppler radar is another essential
meteorological tool. Radar measures reflected
sound waves.
When sound waves are broadcast from a radar
antennae, they may come into contact with
objects in their path.
Using Doppler radar, meteorologists can get a
picture of precipitation that allows them to
track a storm's progress over time.

REMOTE SENSING
Remote sensing is the small or large-scale
acquisition of information of an object or
phenomenon, by the use of either recording or
real-time sensing device(s) that is not in
physical or intimate contact with the object
(such as by way of aircraft, spacecraft,
satellite, buoy, or ship).
10
DATA PROCESSING
Remote sensing works on the principle of the
inverse problem. While the object or
phenomenon of interest (the state) may not be
directly measured, there exists some other
variable that can be detected and measured
(the observation), which may be related to the
object of interest through the use of a data-
derived computer model.
11
APPLICATIONS OF REMOTE
SENSING DATA
Radar Conventional radar is mostly associated
with aerial traffic control, early warning, and
certain large scale meteorological data.
Laser and radar altimeters on satellites have
provided a wide range of data.
LIDAR Light Detection And Ranging - is well
known in the examples of weapon ranging,
laser illuminated homing of projectiles
12
Radiometers and photometers are the most
common instrument in use, collecting reflected
and emitted radiation in a wide range of
frequencies.
13
REMOTE SENSING SOFTWARE
Remote Sensing data is processed and
analyzed with computer software, known as a
remote sensing application. A large number of
commercial and open source applications exist
to process remote sensing data.
