“…In this review of sound‐based technologies for non‐destructive monitoring and assessments of vegetation health, it is important to highlight that different portions of the electromagnetic spectrum are widely used in vegetation studies. Generally, they fall within the definition of ‘remote sensing’, which has been defined as (Joseph, 2005): ‘the measurement or acquisition of information of some property of an object or phenomenon by a recording device that is not in physical or intimate contact with the object or phenomenon under study’. Both textbooks (Huang et al, 2008; Joseph, 2005; Schott, 2007; Simonett, 1983) and review articles (Aasen et al, 2018; Adão et al, 2017; D Rudd et al, 2017; DeFries, 2008; Hennessy et al, 2020; Jha et al, 2019; Lee et al, 2010; Mahlein et al, 2018; Nansen & Elliott, 2016; Prabhakar et al, 2012; Zhang & Kovacs, 2012) provide extensive insight into the basic theory and possible applications of remote sensing.…”

Moreover, plant reflectance in wavelength ranges from about 380–1000 nm are widely used in agricultural cropping systems to detect and diagnose abiotic (Lacoste et al, 2015; Mahajan et al, 2014; Nguyen et al, 2020) and biotic (Nansen & Elliott, 2016; Nansen, 2017; Nguyen & Nansen, 2020; Prabhakar et al, 2012) plant stress responses.…”

1. Urbanization, agricultural production, natural resource extractions and climate change are global drivers of terrestrial ecosystem degradation and decline in ecosystem health. Assessing vegetation structures provides valuable direct and indirect information on biodiversity and ecosystem health, since plant communities govern terrestrial ecosystem functions and overall biodiversity. 2. A growing body of literature supports the hypothesis that acoustic profiling and characterization of soundscapes may reveal natural patterns and ecosystem responses to environmental disturbances. Although assessments of ecosystem soundscapes are a promising tool for ecological monitoring, the influence of vegetation structure on acoustic indices remains largely unaddressed. An effective non-invasive approach to monitoring ecosystem health includes use of active acoustic transducers, which convert mechanical/acoustic energy into electrical energy and visa-versa.3. This article reviews and discusses possible applications (and also constraints) of active acoustic transducers in monitoring and assessments of terrestrial ecosystem health. Specifically, this article includes a brief introduction to the basic principles of sound and types of active acoustic transducers. Moreover, we provide reviews of common uses of active acoustic transducers in assessing plant structures and plant functional traits.4. We emphasize that active acoustic transducers can be used to analyse plant characteristics in a remote, scalable, non-invasive and cost-effective manner to characterize overall terrestrial ecosystem health. Suggestions and recommendations for future research and management directions that may facilitate applications of acoustic transducers to natural terrestrial landscapes are provided.

The multifaceted data from Indian remote sensing satellite (IRS)-1C with Panchromatic (PAN, 5.8 m, 0.50-0.75 lm), Linear Imaging Self-Scanning Sensor-III (LISS-III, 23.5 m, four multi-spectral bands) and Wide Field Sensor (WiFS, 188 m, red and near-infrared bands) sensors onboard, along with stereo imaging and 5-day revisit capability have been effectively utilised for mapping, monitoring, planning and development of urban and regional areas. It made possible to explore urban and regional areas either independently or in combination with other remote sensing data for base map preparation, land use survey and planning, growth modelling, environment and hazards analysis, utilities and infrastructure planning, etc. This review article articulates the scale and mapping potential of IRS-1C data for urban and regional areas, data fusion methods and information retrieval based on visual or digital image processing techniques, including advanced classifiers. It recapitulates the application potential demonstrated in last 25 years in urban and regional studies, and for infrastructure planning.

“…The NNRMS is an integrated resource management system aimed at optimum utilisation of country's natural resources by a proper and systematic inventory of resources availability using EO data in conjunction with conventional techniques. The NNRMS concept has arisen from the overall concept of resource management and is envisaged to be a management system for the natural resources, addressing issues related to (a) systematic inventory of the country's natural resources for their optimal utilization, (b) reducing regional imbalances by effective planning in line with the developmental efforts, (c) maintain the ecological balance with a view to evolve and implement the environmental guidelines 5 . The NNRMS emphasizes to bring operational observing systems in accordance with the requirements for addressing a range of issues of concern, which include food security 6 , water, energy, disaster management and weather forecasting etc.…”

Indian Earth Observation (EO) programme, since its inception has been applications driven and national development has been its main motivation. In order to meet the observational requirements of many societal benefit areas, a series of EO systems have been launched in both polar and geo synchronous orbits. Starting from Bhaskara, the first experimental EO satellite in 1979 to Cartosat-1 successfully launched in May 2005, a large number of sensors operating in optical and microwave spectral regions, providing data at resolutions ranging from 1 km to a meter have been built and flown. Data reception and processing facilities have been established not only in the country but also at various international ground stations. Remotely sensed data and its derived information have become an integral component of the National Natural Resources Management System (NNRMS), a unique concept evolved and established in the country. The paper discusses the evolution of IRS satellite systems, application programmes in different societal benefit areas and the road ahead. How it complements and supplements the international efforts in the context of Global Earth Observation System of Systems has also been indicated.
