| Course Objectives | This course aims to provide an introduction to remote sensing of the environment. It will introduce basic principles of remote sensing in relation to optical thermal and microwave remote sensing systems. The insights both in theory (mathematical and physical principles) and practice (applications and training) will be given with a discussion of various sensor types and environmental parameters each is sensitive too. Additionally image processing and analysis of remotely sensed data understanding and retrieving its information content will be studied. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
