Program content ensuring the achievement of the learning outcomes prescribed to the module

The module is designed to provide knowledge about the possibilities of remote sensing applications in solving tasks carried out by various fields. In the module, the student will learn about hyperspectral data registered from ground, airborne and satellite levels. Students will learn to use hyperspectral remote sensing data in monitoring selected elements of the surrounding.

Extended information/Additional elements

Teaching methods and techniques :

Discussion, E-learning, Case study, Problem Based Learning, Project Based Learning

Activities Methods of verification Credit conditions
Project classes Activity during classes, Participation in a discussion, Execution of a project, Project, Involvement in teamwork, Presentation

Conditions and the manner of completing each form of classes, including the rules of making retakes, as well as the conditions for admission to the exam

Project exercises include the training of practical application of the knowledge and are mandatory. Credit is based on student’s activity. 

Method of determining the final grade

final score = score of project

Manner and mode of making up for the backlog caused by a student justified absence from classes

Compensating for the backlog caused by absence: depending on the classes subject – self-realisation of excercises with the help of individual consultations with the instructor.

Prerequisites and additional requirements

basic knowledge of remote sensing

Rules of participation in given classes, indicating whether student presence at the lecture is obligatory

Project classes: Project exercises: Students carry out practical work aimed at achieving the competences assumed by the syllabus. The manner in which the project is carried out and the final result are assessed.
