Agenda
This hands-on session is an introduction on how to work with satellite data. You’ll learn about analyzing satellite data to investigate natural disasters (using floods as an example), as well as downloading imagery to create maps for publication. We’ll cover how to obtain free images and add annotations and design elements for publication.
This session will also introduce participants to the methodology developed by the Troubled Waters project to retrieve, clean, and structure Copernicus flood data from 2023-2024. You will learn how to calculate flood extent and impact across agriculture, infrastructure, ecosystems, and population areas. Participants will also receive ready-to-use code for both Python users and those without a coding background.
Prior experience is not needed. Participants are expected to bring their laptops to be able to attend.
