Course   Description

Course Introduction

Smart Earth   supports participation and communication between humans as well as   human-machine and machine–machine interactions to provide IoT oriented   intelligent services. This course focuses on the   development and use of state-of-the-art emerging technologies, and the applications   and services of smart Earth. This course covers   basic smart Earth knowledge and current directions of research in smart Earth.  

 

This course presents   the advances in smart Earth applications, which include

   Smart city;

   The birth of Qimingxing and Luojia-3 satellites;

   Remote sensing natural disaster monitoring   and rapid response;

   Intelligent remote sensing;

   International cooperation in remote sensing;

   Motion sensing in daily life;

   Intelligent localization and perception   for future development;

   Smart perception in forest environment.

 

Objective

The aim of smart Earth is to make the world more intelligent,   and increase interactions among individuals, enterprises, organizations,   governments, and nature. Any interaction between them are opportunities to   improve performance, efficiency, and productivity. The development of   intelligent systems for smart Earth provides a more meaningful, and brand-new   opportunity for us. Besides national defense and national security, smart   Earth will have a wide range of applications in all kinds of work.

 

This course focuses on the development and use of   state-of-the-art emerging technology, and the applications and services of smart   Earth. This course covers basic smart Earth knowledge and current directions   of research in Smart Earth.
