Satellites are the tool that introduced imagery and data measurements of Earth's land cover, atmosphere, ice coverage, and oceans over the past few decades. Satellites orbiting the Earth capture high-resolution images and collect data that have significantly increased our knowledge of the planet. Field work, global positioning systems (GPS), and geographic information systems (GIS) also contribute to our understanding of Earth, but satellites have been particularly influential in providing comprehensive and continuous information on a global scale.
