Glacier Remote Sensing

Glacier Remote Sensing is a scientific methodology that employs satellite and airborne sensors to systematically observe and analyze mountain glaciers through the detection of reflected or emitted electromagnetic radiation, distinguishing it from in situ techniques by enabling large-scale, non-contact monitoring of glacier extent, dynamics, and environmental interactions.
