Description
Do you want to implement a land cover classification algorithm on the cloud?
Do you want to quickly gain proficiency in digital image processing and classification?
Do you want to become a spatial data scientist?
Enroll in this Remote Sensing for Land Cover Mapping in Google Earth Engine course and master land use land cover classification on the cloud.
In this course, we will cover the following topics:
Unsupervised Classification (Clustering)
Training Reference data
Supervised Classification with Landsat
Supervised Classification with Sentinel
Supervised Classification with MODIS
Change Detection Analysis (Water and Forest Change Analysis)
Global Land Cover Products (NLCD, Globe Cover, and MODIS Land Cover)
I will provide you with hands-on training with example data, sample scripts, and real-world applications.
By taking this course, you will take your spatial data science skills to the next level by gaining proficiency in processing satellite data, applying classification algorithms, and assessing classification accuracy using a confusion matrix. We will apply classification using various satellites including Landsat, MODIS, and Sentinel. When you are done with this course, you will master methods on how to apply machine learning and supervised classification algorithm using cloud computing and big geospatial data.
