Remote Sensing for Developing Countries
Type(s) Workshop
Owner EARSeL: European Association of Remote Sensing Laboratories
Organisation EARSeL
Abstract Remote sensing is rapidly becoming accepted as an excellent tool for mapping, monitoring and modelling of environmental variables and processes. Especially for developing countries remote sensing offers a unique access to primary data about the staus of land surfaces. Besides a broadly accpeted deficit in in basic datta layers like digital elevation models or land use maps, there is a high demand for in studies on urbanisation, land use cover change, salinisation, etc. In order to identify and to solve these research gaps it is the intention of the workshop to being together scientists from all over the world in order for them to exchange their experiences. Topics will include:
Adapted mapping methods,
Environmental monitoring,
Data pre-processing,
High resolution sensors,
Model integration,
DEM generation from RS data,
Remote Sensing Education.
