It is a program designed particularly to offer the
government officials, experts and professionals from Asian countries,
especially from Central Asian countries whose work and research areas are
involved in remote sensing technology and its applications, as well as other
related aspects of space technology, an opportunity to advance their knowledge.
In order to achieve this goal, the
training course will include four-day academic lectures and one-day technical
visits to some remote sensing research and application institutes of Chinese
Academy of Sciences.
The academic lectures will concentrate
on the following areas: (1) A brief introduction to the status and development
of space science, technology and applications; (2) An introduction to remote
sensing satellite ground receiving technology; (3) An introduction to earth
observation data processing and archiving technology; (4) Remote sensing image
processing software and data archiving technology workshop; (5) Applications of
remote sensing technology in geological survey, resources utilization, disaster
management and environmental monitoring; (6) An introduction on the
applications of medium-resolution and high-resolution remote sensing data for
Central Asian Region; (7) Introductions by the participants to their countries'
status and development in space science, technology and applications; (8) An
overview to the Asia-Pacific multilateral cooperation projects and development
plans. In addition, the participants will have the opportunity to practice the
image processing technology under the instruction of Chinese experts.
Besides academic lectures, the training
course will also include technical visits to some space research and
application institutes and facilities in China for a more comprehensive
understanding of remote sensing and its applications.
