    Description
    This course introduces students to using drones for mapping and remote sensing applications. It will focus on pre-flight planning, data capture, and post-processing stages of common remote sensing data (RBG, Multispectral, Thermal, and LIDAR). Emphasis is developing post-processing skills for commercial projects with exposure to the craft of report writing, cartography, data interpretation, and presentation. This is a starting point for using drones in multiple and careers trajectories. It involves a structured, exercise based, and hands-on laboratory component.
