[CONCEPT] Earth observation satellites generate large amounts of geospatial data that are freely available for society and researchers. Technologies such as cloud computing and distributed systems are modern solutions to access and process big Earth observation data. This course is on processing remote sensing data from operational and historic missions in an online platform, with a specific emphasis on earth science applications. The application to Earth sciences will help you to recognize landforms in images, determine Earth's surface composition and derive various physical parameters from the Earth's surface.
