When

2 – 3 p.m., Sept. 3, 2024

Join us to explore CyVerse Geospatial, a one-of-a-kind cloud computing and storage platform designed for Open Science and a powerful tool for geospatial data analysis. Learn how CyVerse can be leveraged to help you store, analyze, and share data for your geospatial research. Attendees will also learn how to get free access to Planet satellite imagery and free use of photogrammetry software Agisoft Metashape

This session is part of the NextGen Geospatial workshop series that teaches cutting-edge topics around GIS and remote sensing. Each workshop session is designed to be a discrete lesson where students will walk away with specific knowledge on a tool and resources to explore deeper. Our goal is to demystify vocabulary and show you how to use these tools with straight forward examples. 

We welcome students and professionals from any field that are interested in expanding their geospatial skillset. A variety of skill levels are also welcome, though each lesson will assume the audience has limited experience on the topic. Basic knowledge of scripting languages (mostly python) and some prior geospatial experience will be helpful. Some of the lessons will include gentle live coding, but the focus will be on the big picture of what the code is doing. Jupyter notebooks with pre-written python code will be provided for these lessons.
