Attending this course, you have a great opportunity to learn and stay up to date on technologies, methodologies and applications of satellite Earth Observation. You will not only learn the principles of remote sensing and earth observation, but you’ll also delve into the processing of remotely sensed measurements using freely-available available tools (processing platforms, analytics) and by developing own software codes. The processing aims at generating added-value products in the following thematic domains: land, ocean, atmosphere and polar environment.
The growing volumes of deep, multidimensional Earth data captured by Earth Observation satellites unlock innovative use cases and new opportunities for collaboration, but also give unprecedented operational transparency to the gamut of stakeholders globally.
The effective use of data has emerged as one of the most important drivers of value. With unprecedented access to a trove of space data now a reality, business leaders must give serious thought to how they can use it to unlock new value for their customers, employees, partners and the broader society they serve.
Attending this course, you have a great opportunity to learn and stay up to date on added-value products generated by data remotely sensed by Earth Observation satellites and using the data to deal with selected applications.
It is instrumental - for a full understanding of the ability and possibilities offered by EO - to have basic information on electromagnetic waves and their propagation through homogeneous and inhomogeneous media.
This course offers the possibility to learn the necessary electromagnetic background needed to look at EO from an engineering perspective and, therefore, to be able to process EO measurements to transform them into added-value products.
