Abstract Remote sensing has got wide range of applications in the field of coastal engineering, including estimation of sea surface temperature, chlorophyll content, suspended sediment concentration, yellow substance concentration, wave characteristics, potential fishing zone (PFZ) and so on. Various satellite remote sensing data has provided rea data which can be used to monitor coastal resources. The present paper gives an overview of some of the applications of remote sensing in the field of satellite oceanography. From the present review, it can be conclude that, even though IR and microwave radiometers can be used for measuring temperatures at different depths in oceans, better choice is to use microwave data as it has got the advantage of penetrating through clouds and also it gives a clear view in all weather conditions except rain. Band ratio approach can be used for identifying different water quality parameters. In recent past, satellite remote sensing has become an ideal tool for identifying Potential fishing zone (PFZ).
