Geospatial image processing with Google Earth Engine

Google Earth Engine combines a multi-petabyte catalog of satellite imagery and geospatial datasets with planetary-scale analysis capabilities. This class will give a gentle introduction to the power and convenience of Earth Engine. Basic knowledge of remote sensing (or raster data) and computer programming (in any language) is required. I will explain more substantive concepts as we work through examples. You will need to register (free) at signup.earthengine.google.com with Google to use the Earth Engine. We will use the web-based IDE for the Earth Engine JavaScript API, but if you want to use the Python API please see the instructions at earth engine to install and activate it.
