Remote Sensing Applications

You have just completed Chapter 5 - Applications. As a follow-on, you may want to browse the CCRS Web site where you will find articles dealing with applications of remote sensing in the fields of agriculture, geology, environmental monitoring, hydrology, ice, oceans, forestry. As a starting point, try our 'Images of Canada', the RADARSAT 'Applications In Action', and the articles in our Technology and R&D Section.

Additionally, you may want to browse the terminology in our glossary, or review some of the technical papers written by CCRS staff.
