This paper is a brief survey of advance technological aspects of Digital Image Processing which are applied to remote sensing images obtained from various satellite sensors. In remote sensing, the image processing techniques can be categories in to four main processing stages: Image preprocessing, Enhancement, Transformation and Classification. Image pre-processing is the initial processing which deals with correcting radiometric distortions, atmospheric distortion and geometric distortions

It includes techniques to effectively distinguish surface features for visual interpretation. Transformation aims to identify particular feature of earth's surface and classification is a process of grouping the pixels, that produces effective thematic map of particular land use and land cover.
