Bilko is a complete system...

...for learning and teaching remote sensing image analysis skills. Current lessons teach the application of remote sensing to oceanography and coastal management, but Bilko routines may be applied to the analysis of any image in an appropriate format, and include a wide range of standard image processing functions.

Supported by UNESCO, Bilko is available to registered users absolutely free!

All you need to download software or lessons is your registered e-mail address.

Using Bilko to learn image processing:

The Bilko software is accompanied by a number of lessons that show hoq to carry out common image processing routines. Others demonstrate different applications of remote sensing.

  • Tutorials deal with how to use the Bilko software, and teach common image processing techniques.
  • Mini-lessons are short tutorials, each dealing with a specific, advanced, image processing topic, that can be completed in about an hour.
  • Lessons generally deal with an application of remote sensing data, and take longer to complete than the mini-lessons - typically 2-3 hours.
  • Modules are collections of lessons with a common theme. This can be an application area such as Coastal Management or different applications of data from a particular satellite.
