Level
This program focuses on leveraging remote sensing technology and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to enhance crop water management. It explores how frequent analysis of multi-spectral image data can lead to more efficient irrigation practices. The curriculum aims to equip students with the knowledge to monitor crop biophysical parameters, understand crop water use, and forecast water requirements with high spatial and temporal accuracy. Emphasis is placed on translating complex data into practical, easy-to-use information for farmers and decision-makers, often through web-GIS platforms.
Careers
The skills developed in this program are aimed at improving water use efficiency in agriculture. Graduates will be equipped to contribute to sustainable intensification of irrigated agriculture by providing precise information on soil and plant conditions, thus informing better irrigation scheduling and water resource management.
