Summary/Abstract: The paper gives an overall picture about using the imagistic sensors in nowadays practical functions. These functions are covering a large spectrum of domains which already were object of medium and long term studies. These domains concern natural disasters and the evolution of natural environment. The importance of the platforms used for sensors implementation comes from the significant differences between the terrain coverage geometry and the frequency of natural changes or disasters. The sensors used on the aerial platforms offer a more adaptive coverage and are more suitable for real time applications. The satellites systems give a quicker coverage of the extended areas but they are not appropriate for real time working.
