For Civil Engineering branch the following courses are suggested:
. Physics - Image Processing
. Computer Science and Programming
. Cartography
For Electrical & Computer Engineering branch the following courses are suggested:
. Earth Sciences
. Natural Resources
. Interlinks between Image processing &
Satellite remote sensing & natural resources
For other specialised branches, the following courses are suggested:
. Agriculture & Forestry
. Physics & Image Processing
. Map making & Cartography
. Surveying
Considering the overall requirements, courses can be formetted at the undergraduate
level. They should be made compulsory so that every undergraduate will have suffic-
ient background to appreciate potentialities of satellite remote sensing
