Professor
Gilles Peltzer
Most Helpful Review
Being a non-ESS major and having no prior remote sensing experience, a lot of the material went over head and at times I felt like I didn't really know what he was talking about at all. But Professor Peltzer is very good about answering questions in class, in labs, and in his office, and he is very willing to sit down and explain things. His lecture slides are pretty well detailed and the labs are usually explicit in their instructions. His midterm and final are both open notes and open labs. There's also extra credit for each lab (and one extra credit question that went toward the midterm as well), so there's a lot of opportunities to get a pretty good grade. Overall, I felt that I learned a lot from this class and I would recommend taking it.
