Mapping the Invisible: Introduction to Spectral Remote Sensing

Did you ever wonder how your camera actually takes a picture? It's all about light - it records the light that objects reflect. This video explores the basic principles used by optical sensors like Landsat, AVIRIS, and other remote sensing sensors to record the things that we can't see with our eyes - like the health of plants on the ground. It explains the basic principles of the electromagnetic spectrum, bands and spectral resolution in data and the uses of spectral data to answer science questions.

Literally the best explanation someone could bring to the table and still maintain a diverse audience!

[@noellewithane6111]

I concur!

[@immy3508]

Bruh my remote sensing professor made me so confused about this

[@davionralph8315]

You prolly dont give a shit but does anyone know of a way to log back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost the login password. I would love any help you can give me.

[@PremonitionSociety]

@@davionralph8315 Just contact the support folks. Was your account linked via Facebook? That's one way to recover login information

@Davion Ralph instablaster :)

[@theforester_]

wow this explanation summarized an entire remote sensing book. thanks very much. big shout out from Brazil

[@NEONScience]

Glad it was helpful!

[@harnelbearnaudlebot4341]

This is probably one of the best videos I've seen on KZbin about multispectral cameras, you explained it very well! Thank you! Thank you!

[@anapatriciaruizbeltran9822]

This is the best video so far I've seen explaining remote sensing to a broader audience.

[@NEONScience]

Thank you! I'm glad that you found it useful.

[@Meekseek]

It's be wonderful to have nature pulsed eh.

[@naoremanand]

Neon science where were you in my whole life? This is amazing. Thank you so much

[@NEONScience]

You are so welcome!

[@ArjunBahuguna]

Spectral graphs now clear as a bell. 10/10.

[@NEONScience]

Thanks.

[@bazalbaz]

I want to reiterate what I see a lot of others saying. I just took a course on Remote Sensing, and this is pretty ace material. You guys have great outreach and education programs. Subbed

[@NEONScience]

Thank you. It is wonderful to hear that you found it useful.

[@erickodire8006]

all those lectures at campus I never really understood spectral signature now its clear as visible light thanks!

[@NEONScience]

Glad that you found the video helpful! Feel free to share the video with your instructors.

[@edwardgardner3108]

This video was well constructed, concise, and entertaining! A much sought after and seldom realized result which you have achieved. Congratulations!

[@NEONScience]

Thank you for the comments. I'm glad you found the video useful!

[@angelicaisabelllanescastro9543]

This is a very professional and nice video about spectral remote sensing

[@berhanumoges9696]

That's great, eye opener to Remote Sensing !

[@mrweasel]

That was amusing and quite informative. Bravo!

[@NEONScience]

mrweasel Glad you enjoyed it!!

[@charljustinedarapisa6758]

Very neat explanation

[@rakshanasuresh]

best explanation in this video thank you so much.....

[@vikrantvijit1436]

Great content. Thank you very much.

Thanks for the presentation

[@UkrainianLiterature]

Super nice summary!

[@sabreensadhak2545]

I request you to post videos on photographic process, optics and lens related to geo informatics physics, please. This was very useful.. Thanks a lot

[@ehsankiani542]

Awesome !Thanks

[@tondiemabilu4937]

thank you very much it was useful

[@rong1210]

I like it! It's interesting and informative!

[@NEONScience]

Rong Yu so glad you enjoyed the video!!

[@nontethelelozuma8213]

well explained

[@jeannovais7725]

Perfeito! Vídeo muito bem elaborado. Parabéns aos envolvidos.

[@NEONScience]

Obrigado

[@giancarlosanchez4171]

SO good!

[@EricPham-ui6bt]

Can material created from high refreshing rate 3 dimension projector at billion frame per second? Like vegetable or sugar salt?

[@bubberz]

If love to know what my spectral signature looks like.

[@julittayunus451]

superb!

[@joshr.5199]

I wish i found this video sooner XD

[@adarshnayak8859]

In any multispectral image frequency band can aatain negative values

[@jeannovais7725]

Perfeito! 😎

[@grokers847-d6d]

ogologo,,nice one

[@squall12356]

great video!! what software was used to create the animations??

[@NEONScience]

+squall12356 The animations are made in a combination of Adobe Illustrator and Adobe After Effects.

[@simonhuylebroeck5467]

Hey Neon. Really like your video. May I translate it and use it in the classroom?

[@NEONScience]

Yes. That would be wonderful. Please let us know what language you have translated it into once you are done. Thank you.

I translated it into Dutch (dubbed it). Thanks!

[@ParameshChockalingam]

It is mentioned that most of Green emitted from plant falls in the non visible light spectrum. Then how does plants appear green to our eyes.?

[@NEONScience]

+Paramesh Chockalingam -- Great question. While plants do reflect up to 60% more light in the near-infrared portion of the spectrum than in the visible spectrum, only the light reflected in the visible spectrum is what our eyes can detect. Therefore, only the light reflected in the visible spectrum contributes to the color we see -- so many plants appear green (2:07 in the video).

[@Jairo_roke]

Very Good!! :D

[@NEONScience]

+Jairo Olguin glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@utubehelenjewell]

Wow! Like a runaway train ;=) slow down in your commentary! perhaps, to aid digestion of the lovely facts :=) But otherwise really nice. Thank you for this!
