Usually, satellite imagery and remote sensing are valuable when there are situations where you can’t get in to investigate on the ground. What you are looking for with remote sensing are significant changes. So, for example, when I was taking teams into Croatia and Bosnia and looking for ma...
IR spectrums are blocked by fog frozen droplets or ordinary clouds, but those clouds emit this frequency well. We can use the signal to figure out where the clouds are and how high they are (temperature).Live photo satelliteshots are often shown on TV from images generated using this freque...
To study how satellite images can be faked, Zhao and his team turned to an AI framework that has been used in manipulating other types of digital files. When applied to the field of mapping, the algorithm essentially learns the characteristics of satellite images from an urban area, then gene...
Satellite images taken before and after Hurricane Milton struck and passed over Florida last week show the extent of coastal damage.
Satellite images are taken by reconnaissance satellites that orbit the Earth at a relatively low altitude, between 300 to 600 miles (or 480 to 970 km). As the majority of today's satellites are custom made in order to accommodate particular needs of

SpaceX is about to send its powerful Falcon Heavy rocket skyward in its first mission since December last year. The triple-booster Falcon Heavy will launch from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Tuesday, June 25, and deploy the fourth and final satellite of the next-generation series of...
In October 1957, the Soviets finally proved Newton correct when they launched Sputnik 1 -- the first artificial satellite to orbit Earth. This kick-started thespace raceand initiated a long-term love affair with objects designed to travel in circular paths around our planet or other planets in...
If you're browsing Google Maps in Satellite View, you may notice that location details are not always up-to-date. Google Maps uses the same satellite data as Google Earth. Although these images update regularly, you typically won't see live changes, and there may be a lag of up to a ...
