Fundamentals of Remote Sensing in Environmental Monitoring and Management

This exam focuses on the theoretical foundations of Remote Sensing and its application in environmental monitoring. Candidates will discuss key principles, including sensor technology, image acquisition, and data interpretation in an environmental context.

The capability to analyze remote sensing data is increasingly important for effective environmental management. It informs practices ranging from land-use planning to climate change adaptation by providing timely and accurate data from aerial and satellite imagery.

Candidates will be evaluated on their grasp of remote sensing methodologies and their ability to explain the significance of different types of sensors and data characteristics in environmental monitoring.

Preparation for this exam should include familiarity with case studies illustrating practical applications of remote sensing in various environmental domains.
