Geographical information can be acquired using several sources. Acquisition by remote sensing devices is maybe the most straightforward method of capturing reality at a certain moment in time. By definition, remote sensing devices record objects or phenomena without physical contact with the object. Data acquisition using remote sensing procedures can therefore be classified as a non-disturbing and non-destructive method for the collection of geographical information.
As one of the most prominent remote sensing companies, EUROSENSE provides geographical information derived from three remote sensing sources:
