About this Course
Course Description
This course focus on the fundamental concepts of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing and relate it to environmental and current issues. Topics are divided into two (2) main components; GIS and remote sensing. In the GIS part, students will learn on the overview of GIS, geospatial data, GIS database and basic GIS operations. While, in remote sensing part, the students will learn on the overview of remote sensing, principles electromagnetic radiation and energy interactions with the atmosphere and earth surface features, platforms and sensors, and ideal remote systems. This course also introduces a concept of data processing such as data acquisition, pre-processing, data management, manipulation analysis and presentation. At the end of this course, the student will be exposed to the applications and issues related to GIS and remote sensing.
