Assignment:

In Vancouver, we're surrounded by water in all forms - English Bay off Kit's Beach, the Pacific Ocean further out, the mighty Fraser River and hundreds of freshwater creeks and streams and the snow-capped mountains many of us use for skiing and snowboarding. Remote sensing can be applied to water-based problems in multiple ways. Check out some of the ways in which remote sensing of water and wetlands is being used in Canada:

In class, Chris describes 5 key applications of remote sensing in water resources. For this blog post, think about ways we use or interact with water, snow, and ice in Vancouver. Discuss a potential issue or solution which remote sensing of water resources from one of the 5 applications can be used to solve or implement, and why the City of Vancouver should use more remote sensing! Be creative with it - you don't need to prove this application would work, just write pitch to Vancouver for your applications.
