Remote Sensing for Infrastructure Planning Course

Training Outlines

Introduction

Remote sensing provides consistent observations across large, inaccessible or rapidly changing areas, making it valuable for infrastructure planning and monitoring. Engineering use requires careful selection of spatial, spectral and temporal resolution, followed by preprocessing and validation against reliable ground evidence.

This five-day course equips civil engineers, GIS professionals and planners to use satellite, aerial, drone and LiDAR data. Participants will preprocess imagery, derive terrain and land information, detect change and evaluate deformation concepts, then integrate outputs with GIS. Laboratories culminate in a validated infrastructure remote-sensing workflow.

Objectives

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

Select appropriate sensing platforms.
Interpret spatial and spectral resolution.
Preprocess and georeference imagery.
Derive terrain and surface information.
Classify land cover and constraints.
Detect environmental and asset change.
Validate remote-sensing outputs.
Build an infrastructure-planning workflow.
