Course objectives
The aim is to provide an overview on remote sensing system and contemporary methods of image processing. Activities are focused to image classification, radar data classification and on various data types. Practical activities focus to radar image processing and use of Copernicus satellite program.
Learning outcomes
Student will be able to:
- to focus on the basic principles of satellite data processing
- use different classification methods
- find the appropriate sources of satellite data and use it correctly
- use the satellite data, services and software of the Copernicus European Program
- to propose appropriate methods and processing of selected themes through the Remote Sensing
