kaugseire, kus Maa kujutised saadakse õhusõidukitel (nt lennukid) asetsevate sensorite abil, mis võimaldavad koguda detailseid andmeid suvalisel ajahetkel
remote sensing where downward or sideward looking sensors are mounted on an aircraft to obtain images of the earth's surface
Good to know
Õhust tehtava kaugseire platvormiks on tavaliselt tiibadega õhusõidukid, kuigi mõnikord kasutatakse ka helikoptereid.
Good to know
An advantage of airborne remote sensing, compared to satellite remote sensing, is the capability of offering very high spatial resolution images (20 cm or less). The disadvantages are low coverage area and high cost per unit area of ground coverage.
