Sensing Course
This course provides practical training in geological remote sensing, covering study area selection, data acquisition from satellites and DEMs, image preprocessing, spectral analysis for mapping rocks and alterations, lineament extraction, GIS integration, and creating validation plans with maps and reports for mineral exploration decisions.

What will I learn?
The Sensing Course equips you with hands-on skills to pick a study area, get free satellite and DEM data, and prepare imagery for proper analysis. You will learn spectral indices, band ratios, and image enhancement to spot rocks and alteration zones, pull out and check structural lineaments, and combine all layers in GIS to create smart field validation plans and produce clear maps and reports ready for decisions.
