Abstract:
Currently the fastest growing area of geodesy is undoubtedly remote sensing. The importance that it has recently conducted on the effectiveness of worldwide research determines its huge success. Examination of the specific characteristics of objects without direct contact with them is a key feature has opened the way to the new very interesting areas of contemporary research. In this light, it seems reasonable to say that there is a need that the modern methods of collecting and analyzing remote sensing data currently widely used in the world of science and technology needs implement in the programs of teaching students, that they would be familiar with the level at which primarily remote sensing now is, and about its interdisciplinary nature. Modern remote sensing meets the expectations and provides methods from different fields of science, the one thing common is remote test of characteristic features of interested objects. This article presents the ways in which universities are trying to meet this need.Keywords:
