Name Professor Course Date Remote sensing Geography as a subject has wide used apart from teaching. Those who base their careers on geography find themselves with varieties of areas that they can engage in. some of these various areas that they are able to involve themselves in are remote sensing. This geographical technique is defined to be a branch of science which collects information concerning a certain object from some measures that are made from a distance (Lillesand et al. 1261). This process involves no physical contact when making these measurements. This technique involves the use of light and specifically electromagnetic radiation which acts as the medium of interaction with the objects. This technique involves identification of features on the earth surface through detecting their characteristic behavior in the presence of electromagnetic radiations that are reflected the earth’s surface (Lillesand et al. 1261). Science has proved that each and rise models a typical sort of information utilized as a part of GIS. The air photographs taken amid remote detecting applications are likewise utilized amid GIS digitizing to make polygons which are later put into shapefiles to make maps. Work cited Atzberger Clement.

Order Description:
The quote, "Dr. Menzies, why study Geography, all you can do is teach right?" What is needed is to explain why this isn't true. The just of this research paper is to explain what you can do with Geography besides teach. I picked Remote Sensing. This paper is to be 3 full pages of text with 5 peer-review articles or books. It must have a reference page.
