摘要：Remote Sensing Technology Center of Japan (RESTEC) has been organizing various kinds of remote sensing training programs since RESTEC was established in 1975. Among them, remote sensing training course intended for engineers of developing countries has been organized, under the trust of JICA (Japan International Cooperation Agency) since 1978. This course mainly consists of 4 parts. First is classroom lecture about basic principles and various kinds of applications of remote sensing. Second one is practical hands-on training of digital image analysis using MS-Windows PC and analysis software developed on our own and free of charge. Third one is focused on local area hands-on training. Participants visit Japanese local universities and execute a practical training, ground truth and sea truth. Last one is presentation of action plans based on the application of remote sensing. The curriculum design is required to be changed due to the popularization of Information Technology (IT) and Internet. Before spreading of the Internet, engineers in developing counties almost had no chance to take a lecture and training except for attending such kind of training. Though it was able to learn on one's own PC by using textbook, it was impossible to discuss interactively with lecturers. Therefore, the lecture took important position in the training course. However, it is able to have interactive lectures through Internet called as "e-learning". JICA have started remote lecture system in 2005. However, digital analysis and ground truth training is still difficult to be executed through cyber space. Inevitably, our training courses' proportion of lecture and hands-on training were forced to increase the hands-on training course. This paper describes the historical changes and a new aspect of our training course including the application usage of Japanese new earth observation satellite ALOS
