3.00 Credits
Uses elementary principles of mathematics, physics, and mechanics to introduce traditional science required to place a spacecraft into orbit, keep it there, determine its position, and maneuver it. Course provides a basic understanding of orbital mechanics. Prerequisites: MAT 205 and 206, PHY 231 and 232 or equivalents. 3
-
3.00 Credits
Remote sensing and geographic information systems (GIS) are used as powerful tools in environmental research. Prerequisites: GIS 200 or 201, GIS 211, REM 301 or equivalents. 3
-
3.00 Credits
Presents the basic concepts, theory, and applications of microwave remote sensing. Topics include unique aspects of microwave radiation, passive microwave, fundamental principles of microwave (active), synthetic aperture radar, backscatter principles and models, interferometry, phase relationships, processing radar data. Environmental influences on radar returns and applications of these principles are presented. Prerequisites: GIS 200 or 201, REM 301 or equivalents. 3
-
3.00 Credits
This course addresses the two main components of a VNIR remote sensing study: preparation of the imagery and information extraction techniques for both multi-spectral and hyper-spectral imagery. Prerequisites: PHY 231 and 232, GIS 211, REM 301 or equivalents. 3
-
3.00 Credits
The newest active and passive sensors, including advanced synthetic aperture radar, lidar, radiometers, spectrometers, microwave sounders, advanced hyperspectral sensors, and the advanced platforms which carry these sensors are presented. Prerequisites: PHY 231 and 232, REM 301 or equivalents. 3
-
3.00 Credits
Techniques and applications of remote sensing to a broad spectrum of issues related to ecological modeling are presented. Prerequisites: PHY 202, or BIO 111 or 201 or 449, REM 310 or 311 or equivalents. 3
-
3.00 Credits
Fundamental principles of photographic and non-photographic remote sensing and the application of these principles specifically to detect, map, measure, and monitor forest tree, stand, and canopy attributes. Prerequisites: REM 310 or 311, BIO 449 or Forest Management, or equivalents. 3
-
3.00 Credits
The applications of remote sensing, global positioning system technologies, and geographic information systems (GIS) for the management and conservation of soil, vegetation, and water resources that are important to agricultural production; the use of these technologies for inventorying and monitoring agricultural conditions for improving the information base on a local, regional and global basis; and for decision-making in the management of agricultural conditions at different spatial, spectral, and temporal resolutions. Prerequisites: MAT 104 and 105, CHE 100 or 101, PHY 231 and 232 or equivalents. 3
-
3.00 Credits
The fundamental issues in creating, updating, assessing, and using land cover and land use information that has been derived from remotely sensed data. Prerequisites: REM 310 or 311 or equivalent. 3
-
3.00 Credits
An overview of how satellite remote-sensing technologies may be used for the study and monitoring of surface waters (rivers, streams, lakes, and wetlands). The remote sensing of snow and ice is also covered. 3
