We're rebuilding for 2026–27: new officers, new projects, and a few things we can't show you yet.

About the chapter

We're the student chapter of the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society at UT Arlington. We build rovers, sensors and software, and this year we're starting projects built on real satellite data.

GRSS is where engineering meets Earth science: hardware and signal processing on one side, geology, hydrology and weather on the other. You don't need to know anything about either to join.

Seeing the Earth

Remote sensing means reading the ground from far away, often in light your eyes can't see. Every image here is real data from NASA, NOAA and the USGS. Scroll through five kinds of light.

Projects

Some are underway and some haven't started. The ones that haven't started are the best way in, because you get to decide what they become.

        The old site is still here.

        The 2024–26 site is kept here: the founding story, the first officers, and Rover V1's competition result. It isn't updated anymore.
