This Tools Helps You Figure Out Which Satellite Bands to Use for Remote Sensing

There are a slew of satellite imagery options, each offering a range of bands which can be used to measure soil, water, vegetation, and more. Remote sensing technology, utilized by satellites and airborne sensors, captures images of the Earth in multiple wavelengths of light.
