21世纪，在国际人权领域为记录危害人类罪而使用遥感技术的情况显著增加。遥感、人权活动和国际刑事起诉之间的关系处于地理思想的一个重要十字路口，它提请注意卫星图像所提供的“本然观点”所产生的认识论和地缘政治影响。因此，本文分为三个部分。第一个问题是在国际行动的背景下扩大遥感使用所引起的地理问题。第二部分探讨了将遥感数据作为战争罪行证据的内在复杂性。第三部分是在前两部分的基础上，以其他分析形式进行的个案研究，目的是扩大遥感数据在国际刑事起诉中的应用。

The 21st century has seen a significantincrease in the use of remote sensing technology in the international humanrights arena for the purposes of documenting crimes against humanity. The nexusbetween remote sensing, human rights activism, and international criminalprosecutions sits at a significant crossroads within geographic thought,calling attention to the epistemological and geopolitical implications thatstem from the “view from nowhere” afforded by satellite imagery. Therefore,this thesis is divided into three sections. The first looks at the geographicalquestions raised by the expansion of remote sensing use in the context ofinternational activism. The second explores the complications inherent in thepresentation of remote sensing data as evidence of war crimes. Building uponthe first two, the third section is a case study in alternate forms ofanalysis, aimed at expanding the utility of remote sensing data ininternational criminal prosecutions.
