Question

infrared false - color image, invisible infrared waves are assigned different colors. the infrared image shows freshly burned land as red - orange.
visible light satellite image
infrared false - color image
compare the satellite images. select the true statement.
its easier to see burned areas of land in the infrared image than in the visible light image.
clouds are easier to see in the infrared image than in the visible light image.
land features like lakes are not visible in the infrared image.

Explanation:

The infrared false - color image assigns different colors to infrared waves, and burned land is shown as red - orange. In the visible light image, it may be harder to distinguish burned areas. Clouds are more prominent in visible light images (since visible light shows them clearly, while infrared focuses on heat - related features like burned land). Land features like lakes would still be visible in infrared (maybe with different color coding). So the true statement is that it's easier to see burned areas of land in the infrared image than in the visible light image.

Answer:

It's easier to see burned areas of land in the infrared image than in the visible light image.
