Abstract: AbstractRemote sensing is an essential method of collecting the geoinformation needed for investigations of the status or dynamics of environmental and social systems and processes. In this context, the multifunctional concept underlying remote sensing plays an important role. In particular, the removal of obstacles such as inadequate data availability or excessively long processing times when gathering information established remote sensing as a stable data source within the framework of environmental monitoring. The term remote sensing covers a multitude of different sensors, measuring principles, recording modes, and carrier platforms as well as combinations thereof. This makes it possible to generate data with various geometric, spectral, radiometric, and temporal resolutions to solve different problems. In the following, the physical basics of remote sensing (such as the theoretical basics and laws of electromagnetic radiation and the interaction of that radiation with natural materials), the technical basics of sensors, the properties of data (including aspects of data processing, processors, and processing chains as well as information extraction from remote sensing data), and selected areas of application of the results from remote sensing are explained.remote sensingphysical basicstechnical basicssensorsdatadata acquisitiondata correctiondata processing

TL;DR: Intensive forestry practiced within subtropical forests resulted in the highest rates of forest change globally, and boreal forest loss due largely to fire and forestry was second to that in the tropics in absolute and proportional terms.

TL;DR: Although the new index is mathematically defined and no human visual system model is explicitly employed, experiments on various image distortion types indicate that it performs significantly better than the widely used distortion metric mean squared error.
