Course Objectives:
  • Interpret, analyze and summarize results of a remote sensing
  • Apply basic concepts, methods and uses of accuracy assessment and ground truthing to the results of remote sensing workflows.
  • Perform basic remote sensing workflows to solve problems (such as acquiring data, feature extraction, change detection, pre- and post-processing, create composite images and image classification).
