    There are so many applications of remote sensing in geosciences as well as in other field also. Remote sensing is becoming an important and useful tool in mapping large, remote areas and has many applications in geosciences such as geologic and geo-structural mapping, mineral and water exploration, hydrocarbon exploration, natural hazards analysis, and geomorphology. The recent advances in remote-sensing imaging acquisition and availability of images can help geoscientists to explore and prepare maps quickly and evaluate the geo-potential of any specific area on the globe. Advances in remote-sensing data analysis techniques have improved the capacity to map the geological structures and regional characteristics and can serve in mineral exploration in complex and poorly understood regions.

    The representation of spatial data on maps is very helpful and increasingly valuable in environmental planning and management. Data analysis techniques have evolved from descriptive to perspective maps that display spatial relationships on a visual information platform and it is referred as Geographical Information Systems (GIS). Remote sensing provides us with a continuous and constant source of information about the Earth, and  geographic information systems (GIS) are a methodology for handling all of this geographic data. This is how remote sensing is used in environmental management (GIS) are related.

    1.Analyzing the condition of rural roads 2.Creating a base map for visual reference 3.Computing snow pack Snow melt ratio can be easily understood by using Remote Sensing technology, NASA uses LIDAR along with a spectrometer in order to measure the absorption of sunlight. 4.Collecting earth’s pictures from space Many space organization has a collection containing images of earth. Interesting patterns of earth’s geometry including atmosphere, oceans, land, etc can be seen in it. EO-1, Terra, and Landsat are used to collect this data. 5.Controlling forest fires 6.Detecting land use and land cover 7.Locating construction and building alteration
