4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

The theory classes will be developed through keynote expositions of the theoretical concepts of the subject, in a participative environment, with presentation of applications and examples.

The practice classes will allow the accomplishment of exercises on images captured by hyperspectral, thermal and radar sensors, in a computer classroom and by means of specific software for the image processing.

Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support

5. ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY

With the theory exam, the competences CB6, CB7, CG1IGEO, CG3IGEO, CT5, E02MIGEO, E09MIGEO are evaluated.

Results: RB6, RB7a, RG1IGEO, RG3IGEO, RT4, RT5, RE02MIGEO, RE09MIGEO.

With the accomplishment of practices, the competences CB6, CB7, CB10, CG1IGEO, CG3IGEO, CT4, CT5, E01MIGEO, E02MIGEO, E09MIGEO, E10MIGEO are evaluated.

Results: RB6, RB7a, RB7b, RB7c, RB10, RG1IGEO, RG3IGEO, RT4, RT5, RE01MIGEO, RE02MIGEO, RE09MIGEO, RE10MIGEO.

With the attendance and participation, the competences CB7, CG1IGEO, CT4, CT5, E02MIGEO are evaluated.

Results: RB7a, RG1IGEO, RT4, RT5, RE02MIGEO.

To pass the subject will be necessary to pass the theory exam and the practical work of the subject, independently.

The final score of the subject will be calculated taking into account the weighting of each of the parts (theory and practices).

7. VIRTUAL / CLASSROOM TEACHING SCENARIO

Due to the limited number of students and the maximum seating capacity in the rooms where the course is taught, the proposed multimodal scenery is equal to a presence-based scenery with 100% of the students.

 

EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES

Educational Activities

Form (presence-based activity/online)*

Description

A1b – Theoretical classes

100% presence-based activity

18 hours of classes divided in 9 sessions in the room and calendar assigned.

A20 – Practical sessions

100% presence-based activity

18 hours of practical classes divided in 9 sessions in the room and calendar assigned.

Tutorial
