Remote Sensing, GIS, Google Earth Engine and Introduction to Python for GeoAI – Three-Week Course
About Course
This twenty-one-day interdisciplinary training programme is designed to provide participants with practical expertise in Remote Sensing, GIS, Google Earth Engine, and introductory Python programming for geospatial applications and GeoAI.
The programme begins with the fundamentals of satellite remote sensing and GIS, followed by hands-on training in Google Earth Engine for satellite data processing, spectral index calculation, temporal analysis, and land-use/land-cover classification.
The final component introduces Python programming for geospatial data science, including NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, Rasterio, GeoPandas, and introductory machine learning algorithms. Participants will understand how Python can be used to automate geospatial workflows, analyse satellite imagery, and develop foundational GeoAI applications.
