Units of Lecture: 3
Offered: Every Fall - Odd Years

Student Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
1. demonstrate knowledge of applications of optical and infrared remote sensing data sets and identify basic spectral properties of geologic materials, vegetation, water and snow.
