Google Earth Engine

Lessons will start on Monday 09/05 with an introduction by Professor Gherardo Chirici – University of Florence. Then, the participants will form groups based on their skills and interests, to work on the realization of a GEE application until Friday 09/09. Here, we can assist you with the implementation of Google Earth Engine in your actual PhD/Research projects, too!

From Tuesday to Thursday, from 9 am to 1 pm, lessons and practical exercises will focus on Google Earth Engine coding, images elaboration, remote sensing techniques, and more. Group activities will take place every afternoon.

On Friday, an online open session will be held for everyone to attend: experts in various fields will participate, showing interesting GEE utilizations. Then, students’ groups will present their final Google Earth Engine application.
