CoastWatch Workshops
CoastWatch regularly organizes and offers in-person and online satellite training classes or workshops featuring lectures, tutorials, and tool demonstrations.
During in-person and online satellite course, participants learn about environmental satellite data and how to easily obtain it. Participants also gain hands on experience working with the data of interest to them. A major goal of the course is to provide scientists who are not regular users of satellite data with the knowledge and tools they need to incorporate satellite data into their research and management projects.
Expectations of participants during the course:
We ask participants to give us a slide summarizing what they were able to accomplish during the course.
Each slide includes:
- Participant’s name and affiliation
- A description of their project or objective
- A figure created using satellite data during the course
- Datasets and software that was used
- Any challenges encountered or desired data that were not available (optional)
