This short course is designed for those who would like to know what free satellite data is available for use in mineral exploration or other earth observation activities. A brief overview will be given of the various satellite data sets available.
Participants will be guided through how to source, download, and process ASTER, Landsat, and Sentinel 2 imagery and produce RGB images of various spectral bands to enhance features of interest.
What we'll cover
We'll explore using this data in various workflows, covering:
- image processing
- band ratioing
- basic mineral mapping
- PCA analysis for enhancing geological and other surface features
