“Remote Sensing (RS) is the
science and art of acquiring
information about material
objects, area, or phenomenon,
without coming into physical
contact with the objects, area, or
phenomenon under investigation”

Characteristics of Electromagnetic radiation
Electromagnetic Energy can be modelled in two ways
i. By waves ii. By Photons (Energy bearing particles)
Electromagnetic waves consist of a combination of oscillating electrical
and magnetic fields, perpendicular to each other.
C (Velocity of light)

i. It can travel through empty space.
ii. The speed of light is constant in space.
iii. Wavelength: Distance between crests or troughs through visible light
iv. Velocity: 186,000 miles per second or 300,000 kilometers per second or
299,790,000m/s or 3*108 m/s
v. Amplitude: The amplitude of electromagnetic waves relates to its intensity or
brightness(as in the case of visible light) or the maximum extent of a vibration or
oscillation, measured from the position of equilibrium (mid point of wavelength)
vi. Frequency:
 The number of crests of the waves that pass by a point per second.
 Measured in units of hertz(Hz)
 1 hertz = 1 wave crest/second

13 Note the trends: bluer light has shorter wavelength, higher frequency,
and more energy. Redder light has longer wavelength, lower frequency,
and less energy.
Wavelength is a reciprocal of Frequency
October 14, 2020
Fundamentals of RS
14
f or V = c/
Relation between the speed of light (c),
wavelength ( ), and frequency (f or V ):
Thus, there is an inverse relationship between
wavelength and frequency
October 14,
2020
15
Thus (frequency [f or V] * wavelength[lambda]) is equal to a constant (c)
Relation between the speed of light (c), wavelength ( ),
and frequency ( ƒ or v):

Measurement of Electromagnetic Energy(E/Q)
The amount of energy held by a photon of a
specific wavelength is given by
E or Q = h v
Since c = v
v/ƒ = frequency
v/ƒ = c/
h = 6.6262 x 10 -34 j/s Plank’s constant
E or Q = h x c/
c = 3 x 10 8 m/s Speed of light is constant
E or Q =
6.6262 x 10 -34
(3 x10 8)
x
(500nm x 10 – 9 m)
E or Q = (3.98 x 10 -19 j)
(500 x 10 – 9 m)
= 500nm
