Teaching

REM490/590 Remote Sensing for the Study of Planet Earth: An introduction to basic and applied remote sensing science to explore the diversity of our planetary environments (biosphere, atmosphere, lithosphere and hydrosphere) within the radiometric, spectral, spatial, angular and temporal domains of remote sensing systems. This survey course strikes a balance between remote sensing theory, modeling, applications and hands-on labs and assignments. Students will learn to download, process, analyze and interpret multi-sensor data and integrate online remotely sensed data products into their research.
