Global Positioning System (GPS):
Add a headingIt is a
satellite-based
geolocation system
that works
worldwide and can
be
accessed through
different GPS units.
REMOTE SENSING:
It is the acquisition of
information and
images from a
distance.
Geographic Information System (GIS)
It is the information
systems that allow
organization, creation
and
representation of data in
a spatial form. It also
includes production of
charts
and maps.
Importance of GPS
• Tracks a location point related to all
observations
• Allows data management
• Allows people to verify results
• Allows investigators to visit a site again
with a purpose of long-term research
Importance of remote
• Allows collescetionn sofi ndagta remotely
• Stores information digitally and
transmitted electronically
• Involves information visible to
human eye
• Completely geo-referenced
• Perfect for analyzing human scale
phenomena
• Effective for regional phenomena
• Displays images in different colors
• Less expensive
Importance of GIS
• Unveils spatial patterns
• Explains the confirmation
of various observations
• Incorporates various kinds
of geospatial data
Conclusio
Geospatial technology deals in
the collection and processning of data
related to different geographic
locations. It includes three
important
components such as GPS, GIS
and Remote Sensing.
