Remote Sensing and Agriculture – High School , Environmental Science (Terry Nickerson) __  Student Investigation Question: __ How can we model Remote Sensing techniques using a pinhole camera?
 * Agriculture Goes Airborne **

__ Learning Objectives: __ Students will Build and use a pinhole camera Demonstrate the process of remote sensing works Compare hydrated and dehydrated (water stressed) leaf specimens Demonstrate how remote sensing uses electromagnetic radiation to identify water levels in plants Identify two ways that farmers can use remote sensing data

__ Unique Activities: __ Students Construct a pinhole camera Use different color filters to analysis stressed and unstressed leaves Compare images generated from multiple sources

__ Resources __ : Curriculum Brief and Teachers Guide: Remote Sensing and Agriculture Laboratory Activity: Construct a Simple Pinhole Camera Assessment: Interpretation Homework Set Presentation and Lecture Notes: Electromagnetic spectrum Presentation and Lecture Notes: Principles of Remote Sensing Homework Set: Remote Sensing Activity

__ Implementation Summary __
