Summary	The fundamentals supporting the use of remote sensing to assess natural resources are briefly reviewed. The extraction of information from images is developed from basic principles and related specifically to assessment of insolation and biomass energy resources. Both insolation and biomass resource assessments are shown to be currently inadequate. The number (density) of ground measurements falls short of that desired and may be almost totally lacking in developing countries and remote locations. Furthermore, most biomass data have been collected for other purposes (timber industry and agriculture) and do not provide an assessment of that biomass available for energy use.
