TOPIC: Hands-on Workshop - Remote Sensing for Volcanology using ENVI
When: THURSDAY, March 6, 1-5pm
Where: University of Hawai'i at Hilo, Kanaka'ole Hall, Room 273
Who: Open to all geospatial & volcanology enthusiasts
Cost: Free (parking costs $3)
Dr. Scott Rowland, Geology and Geophysics, School of Ocean and Earth
Science and Technology (SOEST) at University of Hawai'i at Manoa, will be
presenting a half-day introduction and hands-on lab tutorial on the uses,
as well as the limitations, of satellite and airborne image data for studying
active and inactive volcanoes. Topics will include a basic introduction on
how remote sensing works, what types of activity and features can be
studied, the types of data that are used, how they are used, and home
of the results that various volcanologists have produced.
