Objectives

• To design and develop data processing, archiving and distribution sub-systems for multiple sensor RS images.
• To gain proficiency in the upscaling and automating RS data calibration
• To be able to disseminate different RS products (e.g. Land Cover, Resource Maps, etc.)

Significance

Remote Sensing (RS) applications encompasses almost all national government initiatives, these includes applications for Disaster Risk Reduction, Resource Mapping, Food Security and Defense among others. To reap the benefits of RS, operationalization of remote sensing applications and products must be put forward. Operationalization can happen when an automated request and delivery system is in place. The development of data processing, archiving and distribution system would stream line the delivery of RS products to end-users such as NGAs, LGUs and researchers.
