Introduction to Remote Sensing for GIS Applications

This seminar will introduce the basic concepts of remote sensing and show how image processing can be used to augment your geospatial analysis. It will cover the basic science of remote sensing, discuss sensor resolutions (spatial, spectral and temporal), explore different data types and learn about automated ways to extract information from imagery. Pixel- and object-based image classification methods will be introduced and demonstrated using local Indiana data sets. We will also discuss how image processing workflows can be integrated into database development and spatial analysis routines you carry out in ArcGIS.

Mark Bowersox will present. Mark is a geospatial applications specialist with a broad range of experience in GIS, remote sensing and imagery science. He has worked as a GIS Analyst for local governments, as a Systems Engineer for a defense contractor and is currently a Technical Application Engineer for ITT Visual Information Systems.
