Do you have to have the refractive indices on your note sheet or do they usually give you the refractive index?

Refractive indices normally don't come up on remsen tests...

Sorry to jump in, but I was wondering if there was any set database of remote sensing terms and general concepts to understand. As a kinda noob to this event (I've done it before but I don't understand any of it :cry:), I've been hard-pressed to find a good reliable source of stuff to learn. It sort of seems like everything is just being thrown at me randomly and when I finally get one concept there's like 3-4 more that are somewhat related but also totally different and confusing! For example, I have notes on most of the satellites but I just found out about different bands today :?. Any ideas/help/tips?

I haven't experienced this as much this year, but last year, practically every test would start with a vocab matching section, and just going through the answer keys of those was how I learnt a lot of the vocabulary.

I can totally relate. To give me two cents: one, basically what knottingpurple said above^. Also, I advise watching some basic Remote Sensing Youtube videos. They helped me a lot.
The biologist speculates, "What's the meaning of life?"
The physicist asks, "In the universe, does matter really matter?"
The chemist replies, "I shall find solutions to both questions."

So this is something I've been meaning to post here for a while and it's not completely relevant to the event but as far as I'm concerned it's very cool so if anyone is interested... https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/ ... sp=sharing!

For my AP Lit class we had to make a presentation on an allusion so I talked about how the Jason Satellites are named as a reference to Jason and the Argonauts because I love this event and there it is <3

Not really sure if this is the right place for this but...with what event does remote sensing rotate? This was my first year doing remote sensing and absolutely loved the event so i want to know what events are similar to it.

I think it rotates with geomapping?
