Join the Center for Progressive Reform and the North Carolina Environmental Justice Network on Tuesday, February 24 at 1 p.m. Eastern time for a webinar, “Using Satellite Imagery for Data Center and Land Use Tracking.” The webinar will introduce attendees to an open-source pipeline to acquire, export, and process satellite images, as well as some case studies that showcase the potential for this approach.
The webinar will also serve as a training opportunity, providing an overview of the basic concepts and opportunities these tools enable. We aim for this to be a starting point in satellite imagery and GIS applications.
Panelists will introduce the audience to what satellite imagery is; explain the necessary steps for constructing a pipeline to acquire images and using them to create other visual outputs; and walk attendees through some relevant case studies where these resources show their real value.
