Course Name: Remote Sensing and Digital Image Processing of Satellite Data

Course abstract

The proposed course provides basic understanding about digital image processing of Remote Sensing datasets / images acquired by different earth resources satellites. Presently, remote sensing datasets available from various earth orbiting satellites are being used extensively in various domains including in civil engineering, water resources, earth sciences, transportation engineering, navigation etc. Google Earth has further made access to high spatial resolution remote sensing data available to non-experts with great ease. The above course will improve understanding about overall remote sensing data processing.
