Course ID: | GEOG 4450/6450. 3 hours. | Course Title: | Digital Image Analysis | Course Description: | A geospatial image analysis course that will allow students to obtain necessary skills to process airborne/satellite images for environmental resources mapping and monitoring. Topics covered include image preprocessing, enhancements, classifications, and change detection. | Oasis Title: | Digital Image Analysis | Undergraduate Prerequisite: | GEOG 4350/6350-4350L/6350L or permission of department | Graduate Prerequisite: | GEOG 4350/6350-4350L/6350L or permission of department | Semester Course Offered: | Offered spring semester every year. | Grading System: | A-F (Traditional) |
| Course Objectives: | On completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Understand the information content in remotely sensed data
- Understand the theory behind radiative transfer and how to
correct satellite images to remove atmospheric effects and
other systematic and non-systematic errors
- Use satellite data analysis techniques for developing map
products of environmental resources
- Understand how advanced remote sensing techniques using
satellite data can be employed to address geoscientific
applications, such as invasive plant species mapping, benthic
habitat mapping, vegetation health mapping, and water quality
mapping | Topical Outline: | Review of basic principles of remote sensing and image
processing
Radiative transfer in atmosphere - Atmospheric correction of
images
Review of satellite image enhancement and feature extraction
Radiative transfer in water column
Multispectral/hyperspectral image processing for water resources
mapping
Multispectral/hyperspectral image processing for vegetation
resources mapping
Remote sensing of marine and coastal ecosystem | |
