The world needs more information about soil for land use planning and interpretative purposes. Spectral Sensing (SS) has emerged as a major discipline in Remote Sensing science in the past years providing important tools to assist in soil information gathering, mapping, and monitoring. This chapter aims to discuss the role of SS (covering the visible, infrared, thermal, microwave and gamma ranges of the spectrum) in soil science, based on different sensors, scales, and platforms (laboratory, field, aerial, and orbital). We review the state of the art and provide guidance on how to use SS for several purposes, for example, soil classification and mapping, attribute quantification, soil management, conservation and monitoring.  aPrecision agriculture  aRemote sensing  aSoil analysis  aSoil map  aAgricultura de Precisão  aAnálise do Solo  aMapa  aSensoriamento Remoto  aImage spectroscopy  aProximal sensing1 aMORGAN, C.
