Remote Sensing Tool

Materials developed by Jackie Kane, BGSU MAT student and St. Ursula Academy Science Teacher

Remote sensing is just as it sounds. It is the obtaining of information from a distance. Students use websites such as webcams, Google Earth, Mapquest, Earthnow and Mapslive to view their world from the air and space. With this tool students can do more than observe the images. They can choose, acquire, manipulate and interpret their own images to answer questions about how Ohio land changes and how those changes affect wildlife, people, and the future or create Earth art. http://usingrs.googlepages.com/
