Abstract

Geomatic Engineering remote sensing
The disciplines of Remote Sensing has experienced rapid growth over the past decade. For the Asia/Pacific region, utilization of the technology ranges from heavy involvement in digital image processing and new generation sensor systems to very limited usage of any form of Remote Sensing, even aerial photography. Education and training programmes, therefore, need to be sensitive to the current status of Remote Sensing in individual countries. In particular emphasis should be given to applications where Remote Sensing is capable of making an important contribution to solving current problems. There is little point in educating personnel from the region in the use of inappropriate technology for applications of marginal interest.
