'''Remote monitoring and control''' refers('''M&C''') tosystems aare fielddesigned ofto industrialcontrol automationlarge thator iscomplex enteringfacilities asuch new era with the development of wireless sensing devices. Initially limited toas [[SCADAfactory|factories]] technology, remote[[power monitoring and control refers to the measurement of disparate devices from aplant]]s, [[network operations center]]s, or control room[[airport]]s, and the[[spacecraft]], abilitywith tosome change the operationdegree of these devices from that central office[[automation]].

M&C systems may receive data from [[sensor]]s, [[telemetry]] streams, user inputs, and pre-programmed procedures. The software may send [[telecommand]]s to [[actuators]], computer systems, or other devices.

Today the application of remote monitoring and control extends from fields such as:

* [[smart grid]]

*M&C systems may perform [[positive trainclosed-loop control]].

Once limited to [[SCADA]] in industrial settings, remote monitoring and control is now applied in numerous fields, including:

* [[smartSmart grid]]s

* [[Positive train control]]

* [[Structural health monitoring]]

* Pipeline sensors
