GIS 4035: Remote Sensing; Module 5a: Intro to ERDAS

This week we were given the opportunity to explore a new software known as, ERDAS Imagine.  In doing so, we learned some of the basic tools within the software.  Those tools include how to use and navigate around the Viewer with two different types of satellite images. We also learned how to add a new column in the image attribute table.  On top of that, we learned how to create a subset from the image provided, which is shown below.  We were then able to create a map in ArcGIS using our subset image, which was created in ERDAS Imagine.  In the map shown below, you can see the various classes and their area (as shown in meters).  

I really enjoyed this assignment because I was able to explore the capabilities of a new software.  I succeed at learning new softwares, and all of their tools and functions.  Being a quick learner, I have the ability to learn new softwares within 1-2 days.  I enjoy exploring new softwares not only because it's interesting, but it also makes me more valuable.
