A Remote Sensing Specialist is a professional who uses technology to collect and analyze data about the Earth's surface from a distance. This often involves using satellites, drones, or aircraft equipped with sensors that capture images and other information. The data gathered can help in various fields, including environmental monitoring, agriculture, and urban planning. These specialists interpret the data to identify patterns and changes in the environment. They may work with software tools to create maps or models that visualize the information. Their work supports decision-making in areas like natural resource management and disaster response.
