SIOS Training Course on Hyperspectral Remote Sensing

Hello UK Polar Network!

 

The Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System (SIOS) will be hosting a training on course on the use of ‘Hyperspectral Remote Sensing in Svalbard’. If you are interested to learn more about this exciting area of remote sensing, please consider applying. The training course will cover various aspects of hyperspectral remote sensing, ranging from fundamental data parameters and processing tools, to applications and calibration/validation techniques. The course material will be delivered through a mixture of lectures and hands-on sessions from leading experts in the field. No prior knowledge is assumed.
