Sessions
Explore cloud-native geospatial tools through this hands-on workshop utilizing Python Notebooks. This workshop introduces key concepts like STAC and COGs, and walks participants through real-world Earth observation analyses, empowering EO professionals to apply modern tools in their own work.
