Why this learning pill?
Satellite imagery and Earth observation are key to addressing global challenges such as climate change, biodiversity and resource management. In addition, sectors such as agriculture and maritime security are taking advantage of this technology, creating a $12.4 billion market with annual growth of 11.6%.

The Copernicus program, together with the Sentinel satellites, manages more than 38,700 products per day, making it necessary to use Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning tools to process this huge volume of data.

This seminar will teach you how to apply Machine Learning to satellite images with Python and Jupyter Notebooks through practical examples oriented to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). You will learn how to manage complex data and create innovative solutions to lead the future of data analysis.
Aims
  • To learn the basic concepts of satellite imagery and remote sensing data interpretation.
  • Understand the European Union's Copernicus Earth observation program and Sentinel satellites.
  • Learn how to download, access and read satellite imagery and remotely sensed data.
  • Learn to process satellite imagery and remote sensing data.
  • Learn how to use cloud platforms to manage large volumes of satellite imagery and remote sensing data.
  • Understand the basic concepts of Machine Learning and its application to satellite imagery and remote sensing data.
  • Apply Machine Learning algorithms to satellite imagery and remote sensing data in a case study relevant to the UN SDGs.
Who is it for?
Seminar aimed primarily at undergraduate students in the ICT field (Telecommunications Engineering, Data Science and Engineering, Engineering Physics, Computer Science, Aerospace Systems Engineering, Satellite Engineering, etc).
