Professional Interests

Dr. Sabol is a geologist and remote sensing scientist, with over 30 years of diverse professional experience with backgrounds in ecology, geomorphology, image processing, spectroscopy, and GIS. He has managed/worked on research projects for various federal agencies including NASA, NGA, DOE, and DOD, with extensive field work across western North America as well as in the Baltics, Brazil, Spain, Alaska, and Hawaii.

His research includes a range of studies using Thermal Infrared (TIR) for: 1) unmanned robotic navigation of a range of terrains, 2) remote detection of archaeological artifacts, 3) mapping different ages of basalt flows in Hawaii, 4) day/night thermal inertia for mapping near-surface soil moisture, and 5) mapping surface composition of desert terrains.

His current research interests include using sUAVs to collect image data (multispectral, hyperspectral, and thermal) to map/monitor surface composition/condition and subsequently analyze the data for various applications including landform/soils mapping, vegetation cover, detection of archaeological sites/artifacts, and monitoring surface change.

  • Hyperspectral, multispectral, and thermal remote sensing
  • Geographic Information Systems
  • UAS data collection and analysis; FAA licensed remote pilot
  • Mapping/monitoring surface composition, condition, and processes
