Remote Sensing Methods
Remote sensing methods use satellites and cameras in aeroplanes (and recently on unmanned drones) to detect and monitor an area’s physical characteristics with different wavelength spectrum segments. The methods have been applied in weather forecasting (Alley et al., 2019 ), monitoring forests (Huete, 2012 ), agriculture (Bandyopadhyay et al., 2009 ), land cover and land use studies (Alqurashi and Kumar, 2013 ), and impact crater investigations (Koeberl, 2004 ). Wulf et al. (2019 ) compared terrestrial impact craters with Martian impact craters using the Bosumtwi impact crater as a case study. They combined remote sensing and geomorphological analysis with landform evolution modelling. The authors realised that they could not explain the current morphology of the Bosumtwi impact crater using a model dependent on the erosion of lunar-like impact craters. On the other hand, similarities with Mars, like impact craters, exist.Theilen-Willige(2021 ) were able to derive further geomorphological and structural knowledge about the Bosumtwi impact crater, such as new morphometric maps to visualise concentric and radial drainage and valley pattern surrounding the impact crater.
