    Course Overview

    The Microwave Remote Sensing in Hydrology Remote Sensing in Hydrology certification course is a three months online program. Even though the program is provided using the Swayam platform, the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay and NPTEL firms have established this certification program, which was created by IIT Bombay.

    The  Microwave Remote Sensing in Hydrology training covers the fundamentals of passive and active microwave remote sensing with applications in civil engineering (hydrology, meteorology), as well as the ideas of processing microwave images using free and open-source programming languages like Python.

    This course will give a general overview of how to get students ready to read and understand microwave data for difficult water-related scientific and policy problems. This course will be valued and commended by ERDAS, RMSI, and other companies with a remote sensing and GIS applications division. Prof. J. Indu explains this certificate course.
