Today a huge number of satellite imagery and geospatial data gathered from various sources is obtained free of cost. Satellite imagery merged with the power of Geographic Information System (GIS) can be the best tool for helping environmental management, disaster risk management, global climate change, natural resources, wildlife, land cover, and many more applications. Processing this huge amount of data during time and space efficiently and deriving useful information and knowledge from data is one of the most challenging aspects of geospatial technology. The course starts from January 18-29, 2021.
