Objective: 

To provide the basic knowledge of the remote sensing and GIS by doing practice exercises based on aerial image interpretation and QGIS

The analysis and interpretation of Aerial Photo and Learning the techniques by using following items, hardware and softwares

  • Satellite imagery of Jaipur region
  • Stereoscope
  • Tracing table
  • Computers
  • RS or GIS Software

Exercises

Aerial photo interpretation

  • Understanding the fundamentals of Aerial Photographs like principle points, isocentre, Fiducail points  number of runs and number of photographs
  • Identification of objects and features; Interpretation Keys and Image interpretation of Remote Sensing data, Identification of cultural and physical features on the image.

Techniques of  mapping using RS  or GIS Software by using following stages

  • Basics of GIS
  • GIS: Geo-referencing,  on-screen digitization of polygons, points and lines,  Editing, adding attributes.
  • Tabulation  of the  map related data, Integration of Spatial and Non Spatial data and Query making and Finalization of Map

CLIPPING AND MERGING USING QGIS
