240413171 ADVANCED REMOTE SENSING FOR GIS APPLICATIONS ( 3 Crd.Hrs )

Pre-Requisites : 240512130

In this course, students will learn intermediate to advanced techniques in remote sensing, analysis of the earth through air or space borne sensors. This course provides second level depth to some of the more advanced techniques of remote sensing and image interpretation. There is a special focus on urban/environmental applications of remote sensing, i.e. the detection, delineation, identification, and quantification of processes occurring in and around cities which affect the environment. Remote sensing technologies havebecome integrated and deployed through geographic information systems (GIS) technology. Students learn how to integrate techniques from this course to produce information that are useful in the support of public and private decision-making. Hands-on activities, lectures, final project report that will be presented in class.
