Free Training Course
RUS: Exploiting Copernicus satellite data within a cloud computing environment for GIS and cartographic applications
During this demonstration, you will get familiar with the RUS environment and will be informed on how to request a RUS Virtual Machine for Earth Observation projects and activities exploiting the Copernicus Sentinel data. During the showcase, you will learn about the Sentinel missions and how to download and process Sentinel data for applications such as DEM generation. Examples on how to integrate Earth Observation data in a GIS environment will be shown as well.
The session will be held on 21 June 2018 (afternoon) during the 7th International Conference on Cartography & GIS.
Registration is closed! The limit is reached.
