1 MESM Track Remote Sensing and Spatial Analysis (RSSA) Dr. Y.Q. Wang (Track Chair)
2 Remote Sensing and Spatial Analysis Remote sensing, GIS, GPS and their applications are among central components of geographic information science and technology, or geotechnology. The U.S. Department of Labor identified geotechnology as one of the three most important emerging and evolving fields, along with nanotechnology and biotechnology. Geotechnology is transforming disciplines in environmental science and management. Graduates in environmental sciences and management note that knowledge and skills in GIS and remote-sensing are becoming essential and as important as fieldwork.
3 Remote Sensing and Spatial Analysis Environmental Data Center To support the use of contemporary tools of spatial data processing and electronic dissemination in the analysis and distribution of environmental data. Laboratory for Terrestrial Remote Sensing Application of remote sensing science and technologies in ecosystem monitoring, natural resources analysis and mapping.

15 A.T. is a cross-section MEGA- Transect of the eastern U.S. Forests and alpine areas, and offers a setting for collecting data on the health of ecosystems for early detection of undesirable changes in the natural resources. Appalachian Trail: 2,175 miles (3,500 km) long and crosses 14 states in the Eastern U.S. Intersecting 8 National Forests; 6 units of the National Park System, More than 70 State Park, Forest, and Game Management units, and 287 local jurisdictions The protected lands harbor rare, threatened, endangered species

17 Program Overview This specialization provides students with technical skills required to use state-of-the-art mapping technologies, such as geographic information systems (GIS), and cutting-edge data systems, such as those provided by satellite and aerial remote sensing and global positioning systems (GPS), for the analysis and presentation of environmental data. Students take a core of basic and advanced courses in remote sensing and GIS, where they learn to use modern mapping technologies. Additional coursework provides them with practical instruction in how GIS and remote sensing are applied in environmental analysis and basic research. Students master a large and diverse suite of technical tools in geospatial data analysis. These can be used to solve practical problems, such as in watershed modeling, ecosystem science, wildlife ecology, water resource management, landscape ecology, conservation biology, and land-use and land-cover change (LULCC)
18 Track Requirements Core courses (21-25 credits), including: Natural Sciences (12-16 credits) - Remote Sensing & Spatial Analysis (at least 9 credits) - Earth & Ecosystem Science (0-7 credits) Social Sciences (6 credits) Quantitative Methods (3 credits) Elective courses (6-10 credits) Independent study (Major Paper) (3 credits: EVS 598) Graduate seminar (2 credits)
