New Arts, Commerce & Science College, Ahmednagar

Prof. Amiya Kumar Tripathi, Chair IEEE-GRSS Bombay Chapter, in his presidential address for the seminar, highlighted the applications of Remote Sensing and ample job opportunities for societal benefit. He directed the researchers to study the earth comprised of abiotic and biotic factors, through the ‘third eye in the sky’ ie. the satellite. He further mentioned about geoscience (earth, sea topography) that when used with data science will lead to analysis and modeling in case of natural disasters and preservation of ecology. His technical session on ‘Demystifying Remote Sensing and AI applications in Agriculture’ discussed the challenges in data driven analysis such as data complexity, data characteristics and complex processes. He also discussed a few case studies to understand the challenges in observation and data retrieval in the field of remote sensing.

Dr. Sangita Chaudhari, Vice Chair, IEEE GRSS Bombay Chapter & Professor, Ramrao Adik Institute of Technology, Nerul, Navi Mumbai, discussed ‘Geospatial Intelligence: Today and Tomorrow’. She also explored the correlation between GIS and remote sensing. She also mentioned the importance of data and mechanism to generate, process such useful data for the applications for the societal benefit. Her lucid explanation of the topic through video clips made the session interactive and interesting.

Dr. Sushree Sangita Mishra, WIEA IEEE-GRSS Bombay Chapter & Associate Professor, Amity University Mumbai, detailed on ‘Spatio - temporal Drought Vulnerability Assessment using Remote Sensing, GIS and multiple time scaled indices’. She defined the term drought in terms of technological scale for assessment in a research point of view. She also discussed various agricultural drought indices for the implementation of the application model. Few case studies have been discussed to understand the research going around the globe, in the field of drought assessment using remote sensing.
