Space technologies play important roles in the areas of natural resources management and environmental monitoring. Remotely sensed data, in particular, provide an unparallel view of the Earth for studies that require synoptic or periodic observations such as inventory, surveying, and monitoring in agriculture, hydrography, geology, mineralogy, land cover, land use and environment. Remote sensing is a rapidly growing technology and is one of the important spin-offs of space applications and space science, having evolved into a discipline working side-by-side with other disciplines such as photogrammetry, cartography, geodetic reference systems, global navigation satellite systems, and geographic information systems.
