Report on the lecture given by Dr. Abhijat Arun Abhyankar on Remote Sensing and GIS Technologies on 22.09.2017
Dr. Abhijat Arun Abhyankar, Associate Professor, NICMAR, Pune delivered a lecture on Remote Sensing and GIS Technologies to B.E. Civil; Engineering Students on 22.09.2017 afternoon for about one and a half hours.
He explained what is remote sensing, how do geostationary and sun-synchronous satellites function and how resolutions (spatial, temporal, radiometric, and spectral) are determined from remote sensing satellite imageries. He also presented a simulation scene on flood inundation – rise in flood level and its effects. He worked out some examples on how pixel values – reflectance values – (0-255 grey levels) are derived from digital values.
About 30 students attended the guest lecture. The students interacted with the Professor with much enthusiasm and learned the concepts very well.
