INNOVATIVE RESEARCH IN REMOTE SENSING APPLICATIONS FOR GEOSPATIAL SOLUTIONS AT UNIVERSITI TEKNOLOGI MALAYSIA

摘要

This paper reports the innovative research in remote sensing and elated technologies at the Institute of Geospatial Science & Technology (INSTeG), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). The Research within the post-graduate programmes and the Centre-of-Excellences (COE) such as in Institute of Geospatial Science & Technology (INSTeG) are now welcoming more synergism from related industries; fulfilling the triple helix innovation environment in providing geospatial solutions to the industry. We examplified in this article sharing some recent completed works at INSTeG, where innovative applied research remote sensing applications involving geospatial solutions in sustainablity, satellite oceanography for oil spills, tropical forest and biodiversity, exploration geology for mineral, aerosol and air pollution, and close-range subsurface utility sensing.
