A Digital Orthophoto Quadrangle (DOQ) is a computer-generated image
of an aerial photograph in which the image displacement caused by
terrain relief and camera tilt has been removed. The DOQ combines
the image characteristics of the original photograph with the georeferenced
qualities of a map.

Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus is a passive sensor that measures solar
radiation reflected or emitted by the Earth's surface. The instrument
has eight bands sensitive to different wavelengths of visible and
infrared radiation. |

m |
The Hyperion provides a high resolution hyperspectral imager capable
of resolving 220 spectral bands (from 0.4 to 2.5 µm) with a
30 meter resolution. The instrument can image a 7.5 km by 100 km land
area per image and provide detailed spectral mapping across all 220
channels with high radiometric accuracy. |

Indian Remote Sensing Satellites were operational, first generation
remote sensing satellites with two Linear Imaging Self Scanning Sensors(LISS-1
& LISS-II) for providing data in four spectral bands(in visible
and near infrared regions) with a spatial resolution of 72. 5m and
36. 5m, with repetivity of 22 days.

Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) is a remote sensing system used
to collect topographic data. These data are collected with aircraft-mounted
lasers capable of recording elevation measurements at a rate of 2,000
to 5,000 pulses per second and have a vertical precision of 15 centimeters
(6 inches).
