Requirements
- Basic knowledge of Geographic Information Systems.
- Have QGIS 3 installed
Description
Remote Sensing (RS) contains a set of remote capture techniques and information analysis that allows us to know the territory without being present. The abundance of Earth observation data allows us to address many urgent environmental, geographical and geological issues.
Students will have a solid understanding of the physical principles of Remote Sensing, including the concepts of electromagnetic radiation (EM), and will also explore in detail the interaction of EM radiation with the atmosphere, water, vegetation, minerals and other types. of land from a remote sensing perspective. We will review several fields where Remote Sensing can be used, including agriculture, geology, mining, hydrology, forestry, the environment and many more.
This course guides you to learn and implement data analysis in Remote Sensing and improve your geospatial analysis skills.
Who this course is for:
- Students, researchers, professionals, and lovers of the GIS and Remote Sensing world.
- Anyone who wishes to use spatial data to solve ecological and environmental issues.
- Professionals in forestry, environmental, civil, geography, geology, architecture, urban planning, tourism, agriculture, biology and all those involved in Earth Sciences.

We choose the best courses and make them available to new audiences. For this we use our main value proposals:
-Conceptualize
-Re-design
-Display
-Sale
Our training offer covers the entire spectrum of data intelligence:
Capture - Modeling - Design - Construction - Operation. Using technological development and process improvement as a transverse thread.
The creators of courses with which we have decided to work have been carefully selected, to offer a complementary set of knowledge. We firmly believe that today people do not seek courses to fill their walls with diplomas; but to make their abilities more productive.
