Università Roma Tre

Objective of the course is to give the fundamentals of environmental Remote Sensing, introducing its main techniques and applications for monitoring the Earth's surface and the atmosphere. The mechanisms of interactions between the electromagnetic waves and natural media is studied, to give an understanding of how extracting environmental parameters from electromagnetic measures. A particular attention is devoted to passive Remote Sensing at microwave frequencies, for the collecting of information on earth and sea surface, ice extension, and atmospheric parameters useful for meteorological forecast or indicative of climate change.

Application fields: industry of Remote Sensing and Aerospace, industry of electronics and telecommunications, laboratories of scientific research.
