Reflect on the contents of "RS" teaching materials
The contents of " RS " teaching materials should include RS fundamental theory; composing, classification, performance indexes of the RS technology system and selective principles based on the observed object; acquisition, correction, error processing, and quality control methods and application items of RS data, and the basic requirements of information extracting for RS data; choosing and buying, querying, storing of RS data; establishing the database and managing regulations and the composing of market; the technology means and system of adjusting, transforming and classi-fying of computer graphics and image, technical control of RS application items and procedures, standards, specifications and quality guarantee system of its specific implementation; the fields of RS application and the requirements of characteristic; the combination and integration of RS, GIS, GPS, computer cartography, network communication and other modern technology.

The fundamental theory of RS
The purpose of this section is to help students master the physical basis of RS, know the sending, reflecting, radiating theory of electromagnetic waves, understand the theory of radiation transferring and the atmospheric effect on the electromagnetic waves' radiation transferring, learn to collect ground objects' spectrum and set up the mathematical and physical relations between the standard spectrum data and the RS information, and make clear the rules in setting and distinguishing the working wave band of remote sensor and the basis of pursuant spectrum band of electromagnetic waves.

The technology system of RS
This section should include the knowledge about aviation, aerospace, ground and variant RS wave bands, and make students learn about the relationship among all kinds of RS platforms, RS sensors, data transferring systems, data receiving systems, data pretreatment systems, image & graphic processing systems and database management systems and master the classi-fication and capability of different platforms and RS sensors and related system and learn to select the relevant technology system on the basis of the observed object.

The acquiring of " RS " data
This section should mainly solve how to record the electromagnetic waves that the ground objects reflect or send on the optical or magnetic medium, and make students learn about the performance, classification, and interrelation corresponding to electromagnetic spectrum's characteristic of all kinds of media, understand the principles deeply that RS can monitor objects, know the reason why different wave bands differently reflect the same object, master the method of analyzing the effected factors of RS data, learn geometry correction and spectrum correction of the RS data, avoid errors and make the processed RS data meet the basic demands of information extracting through quality control.

The choosing and buying and querying of " RS " data
To introduce the acquiring and marketing organization of Chinese aeronautic & aerospace RS data and the methods and rules of RS data management, make students choose and buy the satisfying RS data through technical market. Moreover, students should master the record format of all kinds of data, the means of discerning the data quality and the indices of data checking and accepting, and make clear the problems which should be considered when choosing and buying the relevant RS data on the basis of the undertook item.

Computer graphic & image processing
Since has become an important approach of RS information extraction, this section must be strengthened. However, based on the regulations of relevant curricula in colleges, this section can't be replaced with the specialized. Therefore, the problem of correction, conversion, and classi-fication of RS data through technique should be solved emphatically in RS teaching materials, and become the deepening of the specialized courses of computer graphic & image processing in application. The teaching should make students understand how to correct the RS data accurately, how to design the corresponding method of calculation, how to enhance the data, how to stress the extracted information, and how to grasp the significance of computer graphic & image processing deeply through processing the specific standard data.

Technical control of applied items of " RS "
This section should involve the control principals, methods, and economic results of all applied items in the whole process which include analysis for demand, technical design, the selection and of specifications and norms, the establishment of quality guarantee system, and the specific implementation. Students should learn to analyze the technical feasibility of specific items, make clear the problems, which can be solved by researching RS for specific items, and the preset precision so as to master better the application of RS in technical serving.

Applied fields of " RS "
Because Applied fields of " RS " are very wide, and can't be narrated overall, this section should be classified according to resource, environment, anti-catastrophe or all kinds of specialized RS, introduce the successful cases and typical items, and make students come into direct contact with the practical work.
