Abstract
All bodies, planets, living beings, and inanimate objects emit electromagnetic radiation, and the amount and type of radiation emitted depend largely on their temperatures. Electromagnetic radiation may be emitted by an object or may come from another body and could be reflected by it. There are operational satellite systems that sample virtually every region of the electromagnetic spectrum, with spatial resolutions from 0.5 to 5,000 m. The scientific community’s interest in spatiotemporal studies of global change, environmental monitoring, and human impacts involves the use of remote sensing data. Remote sensing systems, particularly those located on satellites, provide a repetitive and synoptic vision of Earth, which is of great interest in monitoring and analyzing human activities and their impacts. The activities include the evaluation and monitoring of the environment like urban growth and hazardous waste; detection and monitoring of global changes, deforestation, global warming, and exploration of non-renewable resources and their land use; civil engineering;, the acquisition of satellite imagery from relevant sources; the preprocessing of satellite imagery as per requirement; and the development and classification of satellite data using fuzzy C-means (FCM), modified ...
