Image Caption: Many of the rugged inaccessible areas the world such as the Cassiar Mountains, Yukon Territory, Canada (60.0N, 131.0W), a part of the Rocky Mountain Range can be observed and studied from space using remote sensing techniques and technology. The remotness and rugged landscape make ground surveys a costly and expensive undertaking whereas remote sensing can yield much information at a tiny fraction of the cost and effort.
