Description

This course is concerned with the evaluation of environmental conditions and natural resources through assessment and analysis techniques using remote sensing technologies. We will focus on the theory of optical, hyperspectral, thermal and microwave radiation, and will consider applications of remote sensing to natural resources and environmental management; biophysical and ecological indicators of environmental health; field survey design and analysis; and resource and environmental evaluation principles. This course will consist of lectures, seminar discussions and practical exercises. Lectures may also include invited speakers from military, government, and private business.
