Module 3- Photo Interpretation and Remote Sensing- Introduction to ERDAS

 This week’s lab exercise was focused on familiarizing ourselves with the program ERDAS Imagine, learning how to do necessary functions, creating attribute tables with necessary data and exporting our raster image and data to open in ArcGIS. We took a subset of one of these maps and calculated the area for that part of the image and made our final map in ArcGIS pro. I also learned that you cannot add field to a raster image brought in with an attribute table from ERDAS and to build your own attribute table for the raster file you have to clear all the data you brought in. So I was able to get experience troubleshooting that issue in ArcGIS Pro.
