Abstract

Tele-detection offers great possibilities for the accomplishment of progress in the knowledge of Nature. However, all expected benefits have not yet been obtained since improvement in matters of data space, spectral and temporal resolution still need to be made. In addition, greater scientific rigor in the interpretation of the results obtained is needed, attempting not to draw definite conclusions from existent environmental studies made by means of Tele-detection techniques.

Models developed to process Tele-detection data will have to aim at eliminating the effects caused by the variability in the conditions of data collection, the distortion caused by the atmosphere, and the influence of parameters such as the position of the Sun, slope, exhibition and altitude.

Keywords: Tele-detection, technology, environment, communications satellites.

Resumen

La Teledetección ofrece grandes posibilidades para la realización de progresos en el conocimiento de la naturaleza, aunque todavía no se ha logrado todo lo que de ella se esperaba debido a que se debe realizar perfeccionamientos en materia de resolución espacial, espectral y temporal de los datos. Además, es necesario un mayor rigor científico en la interpretación de los resultados obtenidos, tratando de no extraer conclusiones definitivas de los estudios medioambientales realizados mediante técnicas de Teledetección.

Los modelos que se elaboran para interpretar los datos de Teledetección deberán tener como objetivo eliminar los efectos ocasionados por la variabilidad en las condiciones de captación, la distorsión provocada por la atmósfera, y la influencia de parámetros tales como la posición del Sol, pendiente, exposición, y altitud.

En este artículo voy a intentar desgranar las diversas y múltiples aplicaciones de la técnica de la Teledetección en el control de los residuos con efectos energéticos y medioambientales.
