Description:

Exploring UAV and satellite data with Python is a rewarding task for applications as diverse as environmental monitoring, agriculture, disaster management, urban planning, and more. Python provides a rich ecosystem of libraries and tools for handling, processing and visualising geospatial data. Below is a general overview of the steps we will follow to explore UAV and satellite data using Python:

  • Introduction to Remote Sensing
  • What is geospatial data?
  • Basics of satellite-based imaging sensors
  • Different types of UAV / satellite imagery sensors
  • Geospatial Python libraries
  • How to process the satellite datasets to gain insights using Python?

Prerequisites:

MOST IMPORTANT

  • Curiosity to learn something NEW..!!
  • And, passion of PYTHON...!!

NON MANDATORY

  • Basic of Remote Sensing and GIS
  • Different types of Satellites/UAVs
