08:30 - 16:00, Tue-Thu
Instructor: Villiger ErwinWashington, DC$895

Overview:
Remote sensing is the collection of data from a distance. This technology includes satellite imagery, aerial photography and the global positioning system (GPS), all of which are prominent sources of data for Geographic Information Systems (GIS). You learn about the principles of remote sensing, the systems and types of data collected and how they are integrated and used in a GIS environment.

This course is part of the GIS Professional Certificate and the GIS Technical Certificate.
Who Should Attend?
GIS users involved with satellite imagery, aerial photography or other remotely-sensed data.
Prerequisites:
Successful completion of two GIS core courses.
Objectives:
  • Explain the underlying science and theory of aerial photography and remote sensing data and techniques
  • Identify the pre- and post-processing methodologies of digital image processing such as image registration, rectification and conversion
  • Perform image classification and accuracy assessments
  • Integrate digital imagery into your GIS analysis and mapping projects
  • Explain the fundamentals of the Global Positioning System, its application and integration into geographic information systems
