Topic outline
-
Assignment #1
The assignment will introduce you to basic calculations in spectral field measurements and will help you understand the relationships between different radiometric units commonly applied also in satellite and airborne remote sensing. (max 10 points)Assignment #2
Assignment #3
The assignment will introduce you to spectral modeling using two different types of approaches: Monte Carlo ray tracing simulations and photon recollision probability simulations. You will learn how to simulate multi- and/or hyperspectral satellite data in different sun and sensor angles, and will also get experience in programming a simple spectral simulation model. (max 25 points)
The assignment will introduce you to online resources and tools available for remote sensing specialists. A special focus will be on the use of cloud computing in e.g. time series analysis of global satellite products for extensive geographical areas. You will write a learning log based on two hands-on sessions. (max 10 points)Assignment #4
The assignment will introduce you to field work in remote sensing and the use of a spectrometer in outdoor conditions. You will collect and analyze a spectral library from Otaniemi. Let’s hope it doesn’t rain! (max 25 points)Assignment #5
Deadlines for assignments (always at 11.55 pm):
The assignment will introduce you to applications of spectral data in remote sensing and scientific literature. You will read a scientific article and prepare a presentation on it (in small groups) to explain the topic to your fellow students. You can start working on this assignment already after the first lecture of the course, if you wish. (max 15 points)
