ABOUT THE COURSE:This core course is aimed to provide a basic understanding of various aspects of soil science along with some state-of-the-art technologies. The objective is to provide knowledge of different physical and chemical properties of soil. Most importantly this course will impart different preparatory and exploratory data analysis approaches for unconventional digital soil mapping, modeling and mapping of continuous and categorical soil attributes, hyperspectral and proximal soil sensors and their applications for modeling of soil properties, soil pollution and remediation which are not covered in the traditional courses of soil science.INTENDED AUDIENCE:Agriculture, Environmental science, Agricultural engineeringPREREQUISITES: NILINDUSTRY SUPPORT:Fertilizer companies; Soil testing services; Soil and environmental pollution consulting companies; Soil remote sensing solution services
