Satellites can carry many different forms of sensor, e.g. photographic imaging, heat imaging ([Infra-red](https://www.earthdata.nasa.gov/learn/find-data/near-real-time/viirs)) , LIDAR ([Laser Imaging/Light Detection and Ranging](https://www.synopsys.com/glossary/what-is-lidar.html)) imaging, SAR ([Synthetic Aperture Radar](https://www.keysight.com/blogs/en/inds/2020/08/28/what-is-synthetic-aperture-radar)) imaging,... Not all of these require the earth to be in sunlight to collect useful data and some of these can operate successfully in the presence of cloud cover.

**Satellite Sensor Technology**

A large segment of Open Source research involves the use of satellite imagery, gathered using a variety of sensor technology e.g. photographic imaging, heat imaging ([Infra-red](https://www.earthdata.nasa.gov/learn/find-data/near-real-time/viirs)) imaging, LIDAR ([Laser Imaging/Light Detection and Ranging](https://www.synopsys.com/glossary/what-is-lidar.html)) imaging, SAR ([Synthetic Aperture Radar](https://www.keysight.com/blogs/en/inds/2020/08/28/what-is-synthetic-aperture-radar)) imaging,... The resolution and aspect of this imagery is crucial in the success of an investigation.&#x20;
