Geographic Sciences - Advanced Diploma - Remote Sensing Concentration [Nova Scotia Community College, NSCC]

Remote Sensing is the study of earth observation systems and applications. In practice, it is usually associated with applied computer analysis of digital geospatial imagery. Remote Sensing is a rapidly expanding discipline with multiple applications in: forestry, geology, defence/intelligence, disaster management, conservation, oceanography, meteorology, urban analysis, and agriculture. With hands-on experience using industry standard software, learn how to interpret satellite images, process digital images, and understand the theoretical basis for remote sensing and aerial imaging platforms.
