Intro to ERDAS Imagine


This week in Remote Sensing we were introduced to ERDAS Imagine.  ERDAS Imagine is a geospatial image processing application.  We started out with a pretty simple introduction to the application's menus and functions, working with an existing raster and creating a new raster from a subset selection.  The simple navigation and manipulations we did today were fairly easy, we'll see what comes next.  For the final product (above) we had to move back to ArcGIS to create our map.

I'll be honest, I'm not super excited about jumping into a new, complicated, and apparently buggy tool this late in the program.  I feel like we were just getting to the good stuff in ArcGIS and I'd much rather come away feeling like we plumbed the depths there.  Hopefully the pay-off will be worth this detour.
