Camp Description
Drones, Satellites and Digital Mapping
Geospatial Technology is revolutionizing our world. In this camp, you will learn how to use cutting-edge software tools used to build future cities, design better transportation systems, fight crime, improve farming, fight military battles, find long-lost archeological sites and strategize political campaigns — but that's not all! View and analyze satellite images and aerial photography to perform damage assessment from hurricanes, tornadoes and fires. Design a Dashboard like NASA uses to track rocket launches. Learn to Geocache (a techy scavenger hunt game that uses GPS units). Collect environmental stream data that can be uploaded to a map with your phone to be analyzed later to determine the health of the stream. Finally, navigate through crazy obstacle courses and become an expert mini-drone pilot.
Activities described are general topics and are subject to change at the instructor’s discretion. The University reserves the right to cancel programs that do not meet minimum enrollment.
