Remote sensing can broadly be described as the detecting and measuring of electromagnetic energy emitted or reflected from distant objects. The measured electromagnetic energy which comes from different portions of the electromagnetic spectrum can be used to retrieve information on the properties of the earth surface. The purpose of this chapter is to present an overview of the current application of remote sensing to landslides detection (section 2), monitoring (section 3) and hazard analysis (section 4) and to illustrate how researchers around the world are currently using remote sensing techniques to map, monitor and manage landslides (section 5).

Abstract
Remote sensing can broadly be described as the detecting and measuring of electromagnetic energy emitted or reflected from distant objects. The measured electromagnetic energy which comes from different portions of the electromagnetic spectrum can be used to retrieve information on the properties of the earth surface. The purpose of this chapter is to present an overview of the current application of remote sensing to landslides detection (section 2), monitoring (section 3) and hazard analysis (section 4) and to illustrate how researchers around the world are currently using remote sensing techniques to map, monitor and manage landslides (section 5).
