Hey @valeria-rod,

Thanks for sharing about yourself. Could you also share about your larger MS project taking place outside this class?

I'd like to curate the course content to the interests of the students (including you), so anything you can share about your project or interests in remote sensing will help me. It sounds like you might enjoy content about imagery databases?

Along those lines, I'd like you to start thinking about your final project for this class. I'm encouraging all students to pick a topic related to their larger MS project, but you are free to select any apply remote sensing topic of interest.

Look forward to working with you this semester.

Best, Alex

Hello @alex-pakalniskis

We are working with the Umm-el Jimal archaeological site director on a database. We are using the Arches project platform to create this database. https://www.archesproject.org/what-is-arches/ We are using CIDOC CRM to model our database. I think imagery database would be very useful for us. Thank you, looking forward to your class.

Hey @valeria-rod

Thanks for sharing about your project. Sounds really interesting and a cool application of remote sensing.

Let me know if there's anything I can do to support you with the final project. I think something at the intersection of remote sensing in archaeology and data management practices could definitely work as a final project topic.

I'll share details about final project requirements and deliverables over the coming weeks. Likewise I'll share a resource that should help students hone in on a topic for their project.

Best, Alex
