GEOG341 Remote Sensing & Image Analysis

Remote Sensing & Image Analysis challenges students to apply the conceptual foundations and technical skills of image processing toward real-world problem solving in environmental and cultural themes. Students learn the basics of light reflectance in the electromagnetic spectrum, and the various aerial and satellite sensor platforms used to capture that information. Several hands-on projects provide experience in remote sensing applications such as studies of water, vegetation, geology, natural resource management, and cultural resource management.
