IIT Bombay| YOUTH DELEGATE PROGRAM?

Abhyuday, IIT Bombay is a student-run organization working towards creating a sense of Social Responsibility and Leadership among the youth of India. We take initiatives to inspire the youth by instilling a sense of responsibility towards the society and develop a culture of participation in impact-oriented activities.

To bring Student's, NGOs and CSR on the same platform in order to promote the exchange of ideas, values and culture among them, we are pleased to announce 'The Delegate Program' for Social Fest 2020.

WHY DO WE HAVE YOUTH DELEGATE PROGRAM?

There is a need for today's youth to lead their generation and do good for society. The Youth Delegate Program intends to bring out the leaders inside the students, young NGOs and corporates across India. Through the Youth Delegate Program (YDP) socially inclined youth across the country represent the people of their College/Society/Company/NGO in Social Fest 2020, where they put forth their issues and ideas.

WHO IS A DELEGATE?

A delegate is a representative from an NGO/College/Social Startup/Corporate or any other organization with the opportunity to present their work during Social Fest 2020 and voice the issues concerning them.

SOCIAL FEST 2020

The Seventh edition of Social Fest of Abhyuday, IIT Bombay is being organised on 18th and 19th January 2020 based on the theme "The Gen-Z Spark". The fest aims at sensitizing the youth to the pressing issues in the society at a large scale and along with self-awareness, solutions are presented. With our theme for this edition 'The Gen-Z Spark', we are focusing on triggering the generation Z to take up the fight for change against the social order for a better tomorrow.

Resonating with the quote by Mother Teresa "I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples ", the fest will encompass a wide spectrum of events dealing with burning social issues such as Women empowerment, LGBTQ issues, Climate change, Youth empowerment etc.

Energy Interaction with Atmosphere and Earth Surface

In Remote Sensing , satellites record electromagnetic radiation (EMR) that is reflected or emitted from the Earth. Before reaching the sensor, radiation interacts with: The Atmosphere The Earth's Surface These interactions control how satellite images look and how we interpret them. I. Interaction of EMR with the Atmosphere When solar radiation travels from the Sun to the Earth, four main processes occur: 1. Absorption Definition: Absorption occurs when atmospheric gases absorb radiation at specific wavelengths and convert it into heat. Main absorbing gases: Ozone (O₃) → absorbs Ultraviolet (UV) Carbon dioxide (CO₂) → absorbs Thermal Infrared Water vapour (H₂O) → absorbs Infrared Concept: Atmospheric Windows These are wavelength regions where absorption is very low, allowing radiation to pass through the atmosphere. Remote sensing depends on these windows. For example, satellites like Landsat 8 use visible, near-infrared, and thermal bands located in atmospheric windows. 2. Trans...

Types of Remote Sensing

Remote Sensing means collecting information about the Earth's surface without touching it , usually using satellites, aircraft, or drones . There are different types of remote sensing based on the energy source and the wavelength region used. 🛰️ 1. Active Remote Sensing 📘 Concept: In active remote sensing , the sensor sends out its own energy (like a signal or pulse) to the Earth's surface. The sensor then records the reflected or backscattered energy that comes back from the surface. ⚙️ Key Terminology: Transmitter: sends energy (like a radar pulse or laser beam). Receiver: detects the energy that bounces back. Backscatter: energy that is reflected back to the sensor. 📊 Examples of Active Sensors: RADAR (Radio Detection and Ranging): Uses microwave signals to detect surface roughness, soil moisture, or ocean waves. LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging): Uses laser light (near-infrared) to measure elevation, vegetation...

Platforms in Remote Sensing

In remote sensing, a platform is the physical structure or vehicle that carries a sensor (camera, scanner, radar, etc.) to observe and collect information about the Earth's surface. Platforms are classified mainly by their altitude and mobility : Ground-Based Platforms Definition : Sensors mounted on the Earth's surface or very close to it. Examples : Tripods, towers, ground vehicles, handheld instruments. Applications : Calibration and validation of satellite data Detailed local studies (e.g., soil properties, vegetation health, air quality) Strength : High spatial detail but limited coverage. Airborne Platforms Definition : Sensors carried by aircraft, balloons, or drones (UAVs). Altitude : A few hundred meters to ~20 km. Examples : Airplanes with multispectral scanners UAVs with high-resolution cameras or LiDAR High-altitude balloons (stratospheric platforms) Applications : Local-to-regional mapping ...

Government of Kerala Initiatives for Water Management

Kerala, with its abundant rainfall and network of rivers, faces a dual challenge of water scarcity and excess —seasonal droughts and monsoon floods. The state government has implemented various policies and programs to address these challenges through sustainable water conservation, management, and distribution practices . Below is a detailed breakdown of the major water management initiatives in Kerala. 1. Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM) – Kerala Implementation Objective: To provide functional household tap connections (FHTC) to all rural households by 2024. Focuses on source sustainability and community-led water resource management. Key Features: Water Quality Monitoring & Surveillance: Ensures supply of safe drinking water through real-time monitoring. Decentralized Approach: Implementation through gram panchayats and local self-governments (LSGs) . Recharge & Conservation Measures: Rainwater harvesting, groundwater recharge, and watershed development inte...

Atmospheric Window

The atmospheric window in remote sensing refers to specific wavelength ranges within the electromagnetic spectrum that can pass through the Earth's atmosphere relatively unimpeded. These windows are crucial for remote sensing applications because they allow us to observe the Earth's surface and atmosphere without significant interference from the atmosphere's constituents. Key facts and concepts about atmospheric windows: Visible and Near-Infrared (VNIR) window: This window encompasses wavelengths from approximately 0. 4 to 1. 0 micrometers. It is ideal for observing vegetation, water bodies, and land cover types. Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) window: This window covers wavelengths from approximately 1. 0 to 3. 0 micrometers. It is particularly useful for detecting minerals, water content, and vegetation health. Mid-Infrared (MIR) window: This window spans wavelengths from approximately 3. 0 to 8. 0 micrometers. It is valuable for identifying various materials, incl...
