  • Sensor application - need a bit of help

    Hey guys, I've just started learning about remote sensing in university and I have found it fairly interesting to say the least.

    I have this assignment where I have been given 5 applications and have assign appropriate sensors to it.

    1. Discrimination of similar tree species based upon small differences in pigment content.
    2. Mapping of single/multiple family residential housing (USGS level 3)
    3. Regional mapping of exposed geological structures such as anticlines
    4. Assessing continental-scale drought conditions.
    5. Seas surface temperature mapping.

    The sensors I can choose from include:
    1. Landsat 7 ETM+
    2. SPOT 5
    3. NOAA AVHRR
    4. Hymap
    5. Quickbird

    So far I believe for 4 and 5 NOAA AVHRR are the best choice. For 2 I have chosen quickbird and 1 and 3 Landsat ETM+.

    Any opinions or suggestings where to go. I am having particular trouble with the geological application.

    David.

    David, do a forum search for the user 99thpercentile and ping him. I suspect he is your best bet on this forum.

      1 is either Hymap or Quickbird, 2 is quickbird, 3 landsat 7, 4 could be SPOT 5 or landsat and 5 is NOAA.
