COURSE OVERVIEW
This Remote Sensing Information Extraction Training short course will review remote sensing concepts and vocabulary including resolution, sensing platforms, electromagnetic spectrum, and energy flow profile. The workshop will provide an overview of the current and near-term status of operational platforms and sensor systems. The focus will be on methods to extract information from these data sources. The spaceborne systems include the following; 1) high spatial resolution (< 5m) systems, 2) medium spatial resolution (5-100m) multispectral, 3) low spatial resolution (>100m) multispectral, 4) radar, and 5) hyperspectral. The two directional relationships between remote sensing and GIS will be examined. Procedures for geometric registration and issues of cartographic generalization for creating GIS layers from remote sensing information will also be discussed.
