Environmental Remote Sensing and Spatial Analysis
Spatial information technologies provide important tools for
measurement, analysis, and modeling of environmental systems and their
dynamic interaction with human impacts. The Environmental Remote Sensing
and Spatial Analysis concentration builds theoretical background and
advanced knowledge in spatial analytical techniques using remote sensing
(satellite and airborne sensors), geographic information system (GIS),
and global positioning system (GPS) technologies. The concentration
emphasizes integration of these technologies and their applications to
problems of environmental modeling and analysis.
