Geospatial analysis with Google Earth Engine

Modern Languages Building (MLB), Room 2001B

Google Earth Engine (GEE) combines a multi-petabyte catalog of satellite imagery and geospatial datasets with planetary-scale analysis capabilities. This workshop will provide an introduction to GEE. We will cover data models in GEE, basic vector and raster operations, and classification in both feature and image space. You should be familiar with vector and raster data, […]

Spatial point process models

Modern Languages Building (MLB), Room 2001B

This is the first workshop in a series of three workshops that will cover spatial modeling of three broad classes of data: (i) spatial point pattern, (ii) discrete spatial variation on areal units, and (iii) continuous spatial variation. Spatial point (and marked point) process models help us analyze the geometrical pattern of points in space […]

Geostatistical modeling

Geostatistics deals with continuous variation over space and emphasizes the idea of spatial correlation via covariance. It is widely used for spatial interpolation. We will use ArcGIS and R to explore and develop an understanding of variogram and kriging and how they can be used for robust and unbiased interpolation of data over space. The […]
