GEO 3840 - Remote Sensing: Principles and Methods

Credits: (4)
Typically Taught Fall Semester: Full Sem
Course Fee: $40.00
Course Fee Purpose: Fee is used to purchase expendables such as printer paper and color printer cartridges used for student printing in the lab. The remaining funds are pooled with funds from other courses to help pay for non-expendable items such as annual software license fees for (ESRI, ArcGIS, ENVI, Trimble, etc.) and replacement of computer work-stations and other equipment.
Description: This is an advanced geospatial course that introduces and analyzes important concepts, issues, and methods related to a variety of multispectral and other types of remotely sensed imagery (e.g., satellite and airborne platforms). The major objectives are to provide students with both a foundation in understanding different types of imagery and how to process imagery used to address geospatial problems and issues. After successful completion of this course, you will have the knowledge needed to understand different types / applications of imagery and the skills needed to process the image data and assess the accuracy of the results.
Pre-requisite/Co-requisite: GEO 3710.
