The objective of the course is: • to provide opportunity for students from different department to learn basics of GIS and remote sensing, and its application in the field of engineering. •There is no entry fee, however at the end of the course participants should produce research paper(s) for Zorig Melong publication. Geographical Information System Geographical Information System (GIS) is a computer based information system used to digitally represent and analyze the geographic features present on the surface of the Earth and the events (non-spatial attributes linked to the geography under study) that take place on it. Digital representation means ‘to convert analog (smooth line) into a digital form’. GIS is now being used by engineers of all fields. CENTER FOR GEOSPATIAL RESEARCH College of Science and Technology SHORT TERM COURSE ON INTRODUCTION TO GIS AND REMOTE SENSING Contact Person Mr. Kirtan Adhikari [email protected] Remote Sensing Remote Sensing is the science and art of acquiring information about material objects, area, or phenomenon, without coming into physical contact with the objects, or area, or phenomenon under investigation. Without direct contact, some means of transferring information through space must be utilized. In remote sensing, information transfer is accomplished by use of electromagnetic radiation (EMR). Information about earth is gathered by various satellites developed by NASA and many other space research centers across the globe Training This short term training focuses on giving basic idea on GIS and remote sensing and enhancing GIS application skills as a common denominator among the participants having background in different disciplines.
