Image Analysis with ArcGIS

Strictly by pre-registration only

What is this course about?

This course covers dynamic raster processing options available in ArcGIS and takes you on an in-depth exploration of image classification. Learn best practices and workflows to enhance visualisation and extract meaningful information from satellite imagery, LiDAR, and other remotely sensed data. This course covers dynamic raster processing options available in ArcGIS and takes you on an in-depth exploration of image classification. You will use three classification methods to categorise land cover features and learn how to determine which method is appropriate for a given project and dataset.

This course is designed for GIS professionals, image analysts, and others who work with imagery for mapping and analysis. Those working in the forestry, hydrology, environmental management, urban planning, defence, intelligence, and mining industries may find the course of particular benefit.
