Computer Modeling and Simulation refers to the process of constructing and manipulating computer-based mathematical, graphical or algorithmic representations of real life systems or phenomena, for the purpose of conducting computer-based simulations to study, predict or optimize the behaviour of the system(s).
2.1 Micro worlds. Most micro worlds allow both teachers and students to build models.
2.2 Mathematical systems simulation. System dynamic software.
2.3 Special simulation software.
2.4 3D Modeling. All sorts of 3D CAD programs (Solid works, Rhinoceros, Autodesk AutoCAD, 123D, Tinker Cad, etc.)
Remote sensing is the process of detecting and monitoring the physical characteristics of an area by measuring its reflected and emitted radiation at a distance (typically from satellite or aircraft). ... Cameras on satellites can be used to make images of temperature changes in the oceans. There are two types of remote sensing technology, active and passive remote sensing. Active sensors emit energy in order to scan objects and areas whereupon a sensor then detects and measures the radiation that is reflected or backscattered from the target.
A geographic information system (GIS) is a computer system for capturing, storing, checking, and displaying data related to positions on Earth's surface. GIS can show many different kinds of data on one map, such as streets, buildings, and vegetation. A working GIS integrates five key components: hardware, software, data, people, and methods.
