About ISRO Free Online Course on Remote Sensing
ISRO free online course is currently being offered to students as well as interested professionals and researchers on the Swayam platform. The free online course called Basics of Remote Sensing, Geographical Information System (GIS), and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) can be completed in 15 weeks and is being conducted by the Indian Institute of Remote Sensing (IIRS), ISRO. The course consists of 75 hours of learning spread across four modules namely basics of remote sensing, global navigation satellite system, geographic information system, and applications of geospatial technology.
**The course will be conducted from 24 January to 9 May 2022.
**The course also carries 4 credit points.
Course Content
The participants of the course will be introduced to the basic principles of remote sensing, earth observation sensors and platforms, thermal remote sensing, spectral signatures of different land cover features and visual image interpretation, and hyperspectral remote sensing technology. The modules that will be covered are as follows:
1. Remote sensing and digital image analysis: Basic principles of remote sensing, earth observation sensors and platforms, the spectral signature of different land cover features, image interpretation, thermal and microwave remote sensing, digital image processing: basic concepts of rectification and registration, enhancement, classification, and accuracy assessment techniques.
2. Global navigation satellite system: Introduction to GPS and GNSS, receivers, processing methods, errors, and accuracy.
3. Geographical information system: GIS, databases, topology, spatial analysis, and open-source software.
4. RS and GIS applications: Agriculture and soil, forestry and ecology, geoscience and geo-hazards, marine and atmospheric sciences, urban and regional studies, and water resources.
**You will also get ISRO certificate if you complete the assignment or quiz at the end of each module and clear the final examination conducted at the end of the course.
The ISRO certificate will be issued based on the internal and final marks gained by the participants.
