Projects may focus on geospatial data collection, orthorectified mapping, radiometric analysis, agricultural data analysis, structural inspections, volumetric measurement, or aerial videography/photography. Students will develop a project proposal, image acquisition plan, flight plan, and a presentation. Students are required to meet in the classroom and in the field with the instructor.
