Day 2

June 12, 2012

Today Dr. Lipo gave a lecture on the metaphysics of science. This consisted of explaining that everything I thought I knew about research, theory, and hypotheses was incorrect. I learned the difference between Ideational and Phenomenological and how they relate to one another. We then had another lecture about remote sensing and the different capabilities various platforms can perform. We then began our first exercise in ERDAS. This was my first experience using this software and at first it was frustrating but with the help of my peers I caught on.  I over laid one image of Kauai onto another by matching their coordinates. The area in the south west that is a slightly diffrent color is the over laid area.
