- Image classification and post processing: image interpretation, unsupervised, supervised<br />
classification, accuracy analysis, data merging.<br />
Case studies of practical GIS and remote sensing use in water resources engineering are presented. Future<br />
possibilities and impact of GIS and remote sensing techniques are discussed.<br />
Practical introduction and hands on exercises are given in both IDRISI and ArcView. Exercises include:<br />
“Carthographic modeling”, “Database query”, “Distance and context operators”, “Map algebra”, “Image<br />
exploration”, “Supervised classification”, “Principal Components Analysis”, “Unsupervised classification”,<br />
“Introduction to spatial hydrology” and “Catchment water balance determination”. The course includes as well<br />
an individual project, during two months, in GIS or remote sensing related to the background of the student and<br />
or the thesis topic. The definition and guidance of these individual projects is done in cooperation with the<br />
lecturers of other courses and promoters of theses.<br />
