4 Part Series
"How to access, download, and analyze SAR data for forest mapping and monitoring?"
This advanced webinar series introduces participants to the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) time series analysis of forest change using Google Earth Engine (GEE), land cover classification with radar and optical data with GEE, mapping mangroves with SAR, and forest stand height estimation with SAR. Each training will include a theoretical portion describing the use of SAR for landcover mapping followed by a demonstration on how to access, download, and analyze SAR data for forest mapping and monitoring. These demonstrations will use freely available, open-source data and software.
Attendees who have not completed the Fundamentals of Remote Sensing may not be prepared for the pace of the training.
This training was created by NASA's Applied Remote Sensing Training Program (ARSET). ARSET is a part of NASA's Applied Science's Capacity Building Program. Learn more about ARSET HERE.
