Course curriculum

ASTER satellite data has proved invaluable in the geological and mineral exploration spheres and this short course will guide the participant through the process of selecting, downloading, and processing of ASTER data to create aerial photo-type images as well as images to enhance geology using band ratios and differing spectral responses using principal components analysis (PCA). Data download using the QGIS “Semi-Automatic Classification” plug-in will be presented and explained. Example ASTER data will be supplied.
