Catalog description

This course is an introduction to using drones and Unoccupied Aerial Systems (UAS) to capture and process a wide array of remote sensing data and digital imagery. It will cover pre-flight planning, in-flight choreography, and post processing stages. An emphasis is developing post-processing skills for commercial applications with exposure to the craft of report writing, cartography, and desktop stills/video editing. This is a creative starting point to using drones in multiple disciplines and careers. It involves a hands-on laboratory component. 12 hours lecture, 15 hours laboratory.
