This one day workshop will provide a hands-on introduction to TimeSync and Google Earth Engine for monitoring landscape change with Landsat Time Series data. TimeSync is a tool that researchers and managers can use to validate remotely sensed change maps and generate independent estimates of change and disturbance rates from Landsat time series. Google Earth Engine (GEE) is a planetary-scale platform for environmental data analysis. During this workshop, we will explore the basic features of GEE from simple image manipulation to image classification to time series analysis. Participants should sign-up for Google Earth Engine ahead of time here.
Cost: FREE, RSVP required. Contact Tony Guay at anthony.p.guay@maine.edu with any questions. RSVP here.
