Key benefits

  • A good starter course to explain the fundamentals & properly understand the applications of remote sensing
  • Short lectures and practicals which are good to ensure the attention of the audience is still there.

Description

Enroll in my latest course on how to learn all about Basic Satellite Remote Sensing or perhaps you have prior experiences in GIS or tools like R and QGIS? You don't want to spend 100s and 1000s of dollars on buying commercial software for imagery analysis? The next step for you is to gain proficiency in satellite remote sensing data analysis. This course is hands-on training with real remote sensing data with open source tools! This course provides a foundation to carry out practical, real-life remote sensing analysis tasks in popular and free software frameworks with real spatial data. By taking this course, you are taking an important step forward in your GIS journey to become an expert in geospatial analysis. Why Should You Take My Course? The author is an Oxford University MPhil (Geography and Environment), graduate. She also completed a Ph.D. at Cambridge University (Tropical Ecology and Conservation). She has several years of experience in analyzing real-life spatial remote sensing data from different sources and producing publications for international peer-reviewed journals. In this course, actual satellite remote sensing data such as Landsat from USGS and radar data from JAXA will be used to give practical hands-on experience of working with remote sensing and understanding what kind of questions remote sensing can help us answer. This course will ensure you learn and put remote sensing data analysis into practice today and increase your proficiency in geospatial analysis. Remote sensing software tools are very expensive, and their cost can run into thousands of dollars. Instead of shelling out so much money or procuring pirated copies (which puts you at risk of prosecution), you will learn to carry out some of the most important and common remote sensing analysis tasks using a number of popular, open-source GIS tools such as R, QGIS, GRASS, and ESA-SNAP. All of which are in great demand in the geospatial sector and improving your skills in these is a plus for you. You will also learn about the different sources of remote sensing data there are and how to obtain these free of charge and process them using free software. All the code and supporting files for this course are available at - https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Satellite-Remote-Sensing-Data-Bootcamp-with-Opensource-Tools

Who is this book for?

This course is for people with prior experience of working spatial data such as GIS analysts, Ecologists, Forestry and Conservation Practioners, Geographers, and Geologists.

What you will learn

  • Download different types of satellite remote sensing data for free
  • Have a thorough knowledge of remote sensing- theoretical concepts and applications
  • Implement pre-processing techniques using R and QGIS

What happens if an Early Access Course is cancelled? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Projects are rarely cancelled, but sometimes it's unavoidable. If an Early Access course is cancelled or excessively delayed, you can exchange your purchase for another course. For further details, please contact us here.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team. 

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Yes, all Early Access content is fully available through your subscription. You will need to have a paid for or active trial subscription in order to access all titles.

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
