Question

after a severe hurricane hits the gulf coast, a team of geographers is asked to assess the damage to coastal communities. which geospatial technology would be the most useful in this scenario? gps, to track the delivery of relief supplies; gps, to track the movement of residents during the evacuation; gis, to compare wind speeds and rainfall during the hurricane; remote sensing, to capture satellite images before and after the hurricane

Explanation:

Remote sensing can capture satellite - based images before and after a hurricane. These images can be used to assess damage to coastal communities. GPS is more about tracking location and movement of objects or people, and GIS is for analyzing and visualizing spatial data but not as directly for capturing pre - and post - event imagery for damage assessment as remote sensing.

Answer:

Remote sensing, to capture satellite images before and after the hurricane
