The course places particular emphasis on the applications of remote sensing in the terrestrial environment. The various techniques for detecting and monitoring land cover changes are a central theme. The objective of this course is twofold: first, to comprehend the theoretical concepts, and second, to apply that knowledge in practical settings by utilizing open-source and open-data software.

Upon completing this course, students will be able to:

–  Understand the practical applications and value of remote sensing

–  Use remote sensing software and the R statistical language.

–  Make good decisions when selecting, processing, and producing information from digital images.

-Review of basic concepts and techniques of remote sensing.

-Classification of satellite images using advanced machine learning techniques (e.g., random forest).

-Accuracy estimation.

-Land cover change analysis techniques (cross-classification and time-series analysis)

-Image segmentation and object classification techniques (OBIA).

-Techniques for enhancing the spatial resolution of multispectral images (e.g., image reconstruction using higher spatial resolution images,

PanSharpening and image fusion.

-Image processing in cloud environments (e.g., Google Earth Engine).

-Various applications in the terrestrial environment, such as urban sprawl and green distribution.
