Topics of course

Hyperspectral Remote Sensing deals with the collection, information retrieval and processing of airborne and near-ground hyperspectral data. Students will be introduced to hyperspectral data types from a variety of sources, from ground-based technology to satellite remote sensing. Practical courses will provide the opportunity to learn about different methods for pre-processing hyperspectral imagery, mainly in the fields of geometric and atmospheric correction. They will learn about the application of different information retrieval techniques for processing large-scale data. Students will be introduced to different algorithms of image classification techniques, both teaching and non-teaching methods, and the methodology of evaluating the results in the practical classes.

Requirements:

- for a signature

Attendance at lectures is recommended, but not compulsory.

- for a grade

The course ends in a writing examination. The minimum requirement for the test respectively is 50%. Based on the score of the test, the grade for the test is given according to the following table:

Score  Grade
0-49 fail    (1)
50-64 pass  (2)
65-74 satisfactory    (3)
75-85 good    (4)
86-100 excellent (5)

 

If the score of any test is below 50, students can take a retake test in conformity with the EDUCATION AND EXAMINATION RULES AND REGULATIONS.
