ArkansasView is a consortium of colleges, universities, K12 schools, other non-profit organizations, as well as state and federal agencies working within Arkansas. The consortium is dedicated to bringing about the wide application of remotely sensed data, and other earth science data products within the remote sensing and GIS communities of Arkansas.
Two ArkansasView computing experiments (one based on Oracle-based image warehousing and the other on grid computation of LIDAR derivatives) were successfully completed; an overview and source code related to these projects can be found at: http://www.cast.uark.edu/cast/jatullis/r/av/comp.htm
U of A curriculum for "Principles of Remote Sensing" and "Remote Sensing of Natural Resources" can be found at: Principles of Remote Sensing / Remote Sensing of Natural Resources
CAST Acquires High Resolution Aerial Imaging System: In May 2006 the U of A’s Center for Advanced Spatial Technologies acquired a TerraHawk™ Aerial Imaging System. The TerraHawk™ system is a low-cost, fully integrated sensor package for airborne imaging. The system features GPS navigation, automated camera/computer function and autonomous attitude control at NADIR view. The system is equipped with the DuncanTech MS4100: a 3-band sensor (NIR, visible red, visible green).For more info about the TerraHawk™ Aerial Imaging System visit: www.terraverdetech.com |
