Fernerkundung in der Stadtplanung und -entwicklung

What it is about

You will learn how remote sensing is used for the analysis and planning of urban spaces. The focus is on urbanization, informal settlements, urban green spaces, heat islands, Local Climate Zones and building footprints; at the end you can use remote sensing images to solve practical questions in urban planning and development.

What you will be able to do

understand global urbanization processes
capture challenges of informal settlements in urban space
map urban green spaces and their role in urban ecosystems
understand mechanisms of urban heat islands and measures to mitigate heat stress
conduct classification of urban microclimates (Local Climate Zones)
understand extraction methods and applications of building footprints
practically apply remote sensing images in urban planning and development
