ENVS-685 Remote Sensing: Environmental Measurement from Satellites and Drones (3)


Satellite and aerial imagery allow for analysis of environmental conditions and change at every point on earth, nearly every day. This course introduces multispectral (e.g., Landat, MODIS) and hyperspectral imagery as well as lidar (light detection and ranging) data in the context of quantitative ecological analysis. The course includes remote sensing physical bases, sensors, applications, and methods. Crosslist: ENVS-485 . Grading: A-F only. Prerequisite: CSC-610  or ENVS-655 .
