The aim of this course is to prepare students for planning, acquiring and processing field measurements dedicated to remote sensing analysis.

The course will cover such issues as remote sensing data acquisition emphasizing methods of field studies, data preparation (selecting, pre-processing, storing), statistical analysis, processing of the data,

Students will discuss the data processing workflow and plan their own analysis.

The aim of this course is to prepare students for planning, acquiring and processing field measurements dedicated to remote sensing analysis.

The course is realized as a series of seminar meetings with exercises, presentations of projects, discussion on presented researches.

1. Methods used in Field RS basics based on ebook.

2. Remote sensing techniques including field measurements in applications analysis of different papers.

3. Short project ofplanning and processing field data (the aim, the literature background, presentation of research methods, the concept of own methodology, obtained results) and their discussion.

The course will cover such issues as remote sensing data acquisition emphasizing methods of field studies, data preparation (selecting, pre-processing, storing), statistical analysis, processing of the data, problems during field measurements.

Work and preparation time for classes: 3 ECTS = 75 h
