Remote Sensing Interactives

Interactive tools help illustrate basic remote sensing concepts.

	Multispectral Feature Space Interactive A Java interactive designed to help teach the basic concepts of what feature space is and how it is used in image classification. Interactive developed by Roberto Garcia Yunta, Peter Ersts, and Ned Horning
	Band Combinations The Band Combination interactive tool allows you to change MODIS, ASTER, and LANDSAT images by controlling which bands make up the image. Content developed by Ned Horning
	Red, green and blue color mixing This interactive tool shows how red, green, and blue light are combined to create different color pixels on a computer monitor. Content developed by Ned Horning
	Topography Effect This tool displays the effect of topography on radiance measured by a satellite sensor. Content developed by Ned Horning and Kevin Koy.
	Comparing scale Compare the scale of Modis, Landsat, and IKONOS imagery with this magnification tool. Content developed by Ned Horning and Kevin Koy.
	Spectral curves and sensor band This interactive tool illustrates how different sensors measure the intensity of different wavelengths of light. Content developed by Ned Horning.
	Land cover map/image comparison Interactively compare the similarities and differences between a Landsat satellite image and a landcover map derived from that image. Content developed by Ned Horning.
	What a sensor sees This interactive tool displays how the value of an image pixel is determined by the sensor. Content developed by Ned Horning.
	Image footprint comparison This interactive tool highlights the amount of area or "footprint" that several different satellite images acquire. Content developed by Ned Horning and Kevin Koy.
