Every sensor is limited in respect to the size of the smallest area that can be separately recorded as an entity on an image. This minimum area determines the spatial detail the fineness of the patterns-on the image. These minim al areal units\, known as pixels ("picture elements")\, are the smallest a real units identifiable on the image.\nRemote sensing techniques are curre ntly used by a number organizations for the study of remote objects such a s earth\, lunar\, and planetary surfaces and atmospheres from great distan ces. Remote sensing data is processed using image processing techniques fo r producing conventional maps\, thematic maps\, resources surveys in the f ields of agriculture\, water resources\, forestry etc.\nFor students\, stu dy of Remote Sensing exposes to number of technologies* that can contribut e to several dimensions and subsequent personal and professional developme nt. *Imaging systems\, image processing software\, artificial intelligence techniques\, robotics\, high speed computing systems\, large capacity sto rage devices\, data reception\, data processing\, high-speed internet\, la sers \, deep space communication systems\, etc.\,\n\nIndian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has a vibrant Indian Remote Sensing program since 198 8 with a gamut of Indian Remote Sensing Missions (IRS) observing Earth wit h Optical\, microwave and hyper-spectral instruments flown on-board to pro vide necessary data in various\nspatial\, spectral and temporal resolution s to cater to different user requirements in the country and for global us age.
