David Schmidt & Knut Christianson: Using Analyzing High Resolution Topography with TLS and SfM in Field Methods in Remote Sensing at University of Washington-Seattle Campus part of GETSI:Teaching Materials:Analyzing High Resolution Topography with TLS and SfM
We implemented a quarter-long field methods course that introduced students to a range of field instruments. TLS and SfM represented 2 of the 4 field-based methods that were introduced in the course. This was a hands-on course for the students, with considerable time spent working in the computer lab performing operations on real data. About half of the students had previously taken a formal remote sensing course that focused more on satellite-based imagery. So this course complemented their previous experiences, and expanded into field-scale imagery and change detection.
