- A drone mapping specialist in Australia collects hyperspectral data over a 480-hectare wheat field divided into 15 equal sections. Each section is scanned in 8 passes, and each pass generates 1.2 gigabytes of data. How many total gigabytes of data are collected from the entire field?
- Each section covers 480 ÷ 15 = <<480/15=32>>32 hectares, but area is not needed since we focus on passes and data.
- Each pass produces 1.2 GB, so total data is 120 × 1.2 = <<120*1.2=144>>144 GB.
