GIS 4035 - Lab 3: Intro to ERDAS Imagine and Digital Data

 Hello everyone, for lab 3 of Photo Interpretation and Remote Sensing with took a look into Earth Resources Data Analysis System or ERDAS and navigated through different tools and applications. This lab was broken up into 2 parts and served as a first look as I was introduced to the functionality of ERDAS which I have not done before. I also had time to play with the viewing aspects, data manipulation, shortcuts, and also creating a subset to make a map. The first part dealt with the basic and map making while the second part dived into examining remote sensing properties such as Spatial resolution, radiometric resolution, Temporal and Spectral resolution, etc. The map below shows the creation of a subset I made on ERDAS that was transferred to ArcGIS Pro to create a map.

GIS 4035L: Lab 4 - Spatial Enhancement

Image
 For Lab 4, Spatial Enhancement, we looked into learning how to work with Landsat 4-5 data form the official Glovis website and use ERDAS and ArcGIS Pro to run spatial enhancement tools on different image. The first and second exercise involved learning how to download and format data from the Glovis website. The third exercise involves using and manipulating image histograms for the LandSat data. The fourth and fifth exercise includes the use of Spatial Characteristics and Band Ratios to alter the band layers to make certain features pop out more than others. The sixth exercise involved examining the layer information of the image layers while the seventh exercise involved tying in all the exercises to now independently identify features with what was learned. Below shows 3 different maps showing a large river, lake, and snow cover features identified with spatial enhancement.

Week 1- Overview of ArcGIS

Image
For the first week of Intro to GIS lab class, we performed a lab covering the basics of how to navigate through ArcGIS Pro. Learning the basics pf ArcGIS Pro will help in the more complex labs to come in the near future. This lab consist of learning how to prepare, add, and explore data, understanding and using symbolization of data, and how to create and export maps. The map provided shows the finished product of the lab and the population of different world countries. In the weeks to come, different aspects of GIS will be explored and more complex maps we be shown.
