Course Objectives		1. Producing maps in different scales and for various purposes by using remotely sensed data. 2. Determining appropriate image processing and cartographic design methods to design topographic and thematic maps for different mapping applications. 3. Explicating spatial and thematic accuracy of the remotely sensed data in terms of cartography. 4. Examining the use of remotely sensed data for producing various scaled maps in terms of cartography. 5. Improving practical abilities through term project.
Course Description		Appropriate remotely sensed data and image processing methods should be used considering the purpose, scope, scale and expected accuracy for the application while producing maps using remote sensing. It is important to produce maps complied with national and international standards. This course aims to explain spatial resolution, locational/thematic accuracy and uncertainty terms in remote sensing. The main approaches, which are used for designing topographic and thematic maps in large, medium or small scale by using remotely sensed data, will be explained by considering cartographic design principles.
Course Outcomes		1. Selecting the appropriate remotely sensed data considering the aim, scope and scale of the study. 2. Processing selected remotely sensed data by using proper data processing and assessment method. 3. Using remotely sensed data in topographic and thematic mapping effectively. 4. Producing maps depending on the scale and the aim of the study by considering cartographic design principles. 5. Detail examination of maps and remotely sensed data in terms of scale, resolution, thematic and spatial accuracy. 6. Comprehending and implementing national and international standards related with mapping remotely sensed data. 7. Developing the advanced level applications within the context of the mapping remotely sensed data and sharing the results with various related disciplines.
