Imaging and Mapping the Earth is a 20 credit point unit that provides an introduction to satellite remote sensing, applied geophysics and geographical information systems. The course will focus upon (i) observations of the Earth's surface and atmosphere from space, (ii) handling imagery using a spatial framework and (iii) geophysical exploration using gravity, magnetic, seismic, electrical and electromagnetic techniques can be used to address applied problems in the shallow sub-surface.
