The course includes lectures, class discussions, computer assignments, and a final project. The content provides a basic understanding of remote sensing methods used to collect information about planets. Main topics include: Description of scientific methods used in planetary exploration and their current technological limitations. Past, present and future concepts of solar system exploration. The importance of space planetary missions accomplished by different countries. Data portals of space agencies and universities. Remote sensing data and image processing in solar system exploration. Analysis of data acquired by space probes and application of the results for improving understanding of solar system objects. The course is designed for students interested to learn how to use and interpret remote sensing data from planets and other solar system bodies. The main method is spectroscopy performed at wavelengths of visible, near-infrared and thermal radiation. Students will learn the latest methods of remote sensing and the basics of their use to derive information about the composition of planetary surfaces or their atmospheres. Students are expected to know the basics of remote sensing at the bachelor level and to master the computing skills and software products needed to process image data. The advantage is knowledge of high school physics, especially optics and electromagnetic radiation, and the basics of chemistry and mineralogy. |
