A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

GIS and remote sensing overview

GIS and Remote Sensing (RS) form the backbone of spatial data acquisition, processing and analysis in modern geography. Mastering their core concepts—data acquisition methods, data types, processing steps and key applications—enables students to design, evaluate and implement spatial solutions for a wide range of problems. These fundamentals are repeatedly tested in the NUC CCMAS, NBTE and NCCE examinations.
