AG1324 Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing 9.0 credits

Introduction to photogrammetry & remote sensing

Photogrammetric sensors & systems

Photogrammetric orientation, geometric properties, system error and correction

Photogrammetric products: maps, DEMs orthophotos

Aerial surveying and planning , quality aspect

Digital Images and digital matchning techniques

Photogrammetry applications in cartography, GIS and civil engineering

Earth Observation satellites

Thermal remote sensing

Radar remote sensing

Digital image analysis: enhancement & classification

Remote sensing applications: selected examples

This course intends to provide the basics in theory, models and applications of analytic and digital photogrammetry, as well as to give students an owerview of remote sensing concepts, the ways in which remote sensing systems are used to acquire data, how these data may be analyzed digitally, and how the information is used in various applications.

At the end of the course, students should have a good knowledge on how to acquire different types of remote sensing imagery and the basic algorithms to process and analyze remotely sensed images. Students should to be able to apply and develop photogrammetry for production of spatial data and for non-topographic applications, to plan aerial photogrammetric spatial data production and to analyze the resulting quality. Students should also be capable of undertaking basic digital image analysis.

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

• LAB2 - Laboratory Work, 4.0 credits, grading scale: P, F
• PRO2 - Project, 1.5 credits, grading scale: P, F
• TEN2 - Examination, 3.5 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
