Satellite image processing

Posted by Sergio Morales in Image Processing | News - (0 Comments)

A second version of the Satellite Image Processing Course was developed last November 2011 in the Centro de Instrucción Marítima(Cimar), located on buildings of the Chilean Navy (“Faro Punta Ángeles“). In this opportunity Bryan Bagnall and Lucas Keenan, experts from ONR, gave a course of two weeks, and the main objective was to learn to use OSSIM, a software that provides advanced geo-spatial image processing for remote sensing, photogrammetry, and Geographic Information Systems.

CTI-HPC invites you to participate in the course on GPU Computing to be held from August 8th to September 1st.

The course will provide a thorough introduction to this topic, covering the implementation of algorithms for general and scientific purposes, as well as discussing the advantages of using GPUs for high-performance computing in the future. After completing the course, it will be possible for attendants who are interested on the subject to take part on related projects on CTI-HPC, and also to apply for academic exchange opportunities. More Information

This course has been partially funded by the GISELA project.

Satellite Image Processing Course

The Center for Technological Innovation in High Performance Computing (CTI-HPC), supported by the Office of Naval Research (ONR) together with the Computer Science Department at UTFSM, are pleased to invite the whole community to participate in the Satellite Image Processing Course, to be held between July 11th and 29th.

The course will be taught by John Stastny, M.Sc. Electric Engineer (Illinois en Urbana-Champaign University, USA).

The course will consider processing of satellite images general topics, to later go further with the use of specialized software to perform this task, called OSSIM. At the end of the course, it is possible to continue the related work in the CTI-HPC, as well as opportunities for collaboration with international projects, carrying undergraduate or graduate thesis.
