Image processing software (ENVI) is used in this subject. It is supplied to the students.
This subject provides a broad foundational knowledge to the specialised area of remote sensing. Topics include the electromagnetic spectrum, spectral response of targets, sensors and platforms, and ground truth data collection. Image processing software is introduced, and case study applications in the environmental sciences are studied to demonstrate the utility of remote sensing to sustainable catchment planning and management. The subject has no residential school. Students completing this subject have the ability to use remote sensing imagery to produce a land cover map of an area.
