Direitos dos povos indígenas à terra e a COP15 da biodiversidade: seis meses depois

24 Maio 2023

Após duas semanas de negociações tensas, a recente Conferência das Nações Unidas sobre Biodiversidade COP15 terminou com um acordo histórico para orientar a ação global sobre a natureza até 2030. A Estrutura Global de Biodiversidade de Kunming-Montreal (GBF - sigla em inglês) inclui medidas concretas para interromper e reverter a perda da natureza, incluindo a proteção de 30% do planeta e 30% dos ecossistemas degradados até 2030.

Application of NASA SPoRT-Land Information System (SPoRT-LIS) Soil Moisture Data for Drought

16 Maio 2023 - 30 Maio 2023

NASA’s Applied Remote Sensing Training Program (ARSET) has opened a new open, online webinar series: Application of NASA SPoRT-Land Information System (SPoRT-LIS) Soil Moisture Data for Drought. This 3-part webinar series is focused on the introduction of the NASA Land Information System (LIS) output of soil moisture at various depths for drought analysis and monitoring. Examples from operational applications as well as practice exercises (for using LIS data for drought monitoring) will be included in this course. Access to the SPoRT-LIS products via online viewer, in GIS formats, and GIS-based display tools, will also be included. Moreover, self-paced microlessons will be available to help users confirm their understanding and improve their skill via homework lessons between live sessions.

Fundamentals of Machine Learning for Earth Science

19 Abril 2023 - 03 Maio 2023

NASA’s Applied Remote Sensing Training Program (ARSET) has opened a new online introductory webinar series: Fundamentals of Machine Learning for Earth Science. This three-part training, presented in English and Spanish, is open to the public and will provide attendees an overview of machine learning in regards to Earth Science, and how to apply these algorithms and techniques to remote sensing data in a meaningful way. Attendees will also be provided with end-to-end case study examples for generating a simple random forest model for land cover classification from optical remote sensing. We will also present additional case studies to apply the presented workflows using additional NASA data.

 

Crop Mapping using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Optical Remote Sensing

03 Abril 2023 - 12 Abril 2023

NASA’s Applied Remote Sensing Training Program (ARSET) has opened a new online advanced webinar series: Crop Mapping using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Optical Remote Sensing. This three-part training, presented in English and Spanish, is open to the public and builds on previous ARSET agricultural trainings. Here we present more advanced radar remote sensing techniques using polarimetry and a canopy structure dynamic model to monitor crop growth. The training will also cover methods that use machine learning methods to classify crop type using a time series of Sentinel-1 & Sentinel-2 imagery. This series will include practical exercises using the Sentinel Application Platform (SNAP) and Python code written in Python Jupyter Notebooks, a web-based interactive development environment for scientific computing and machine learning.

Diálogos da Terra Recuperando dados: Soberania da mulher sobre dados fundiários

29 Março 2023

O tema para o Dia Internacional da Mulher deste ano é "DigitALL: Inovação e tecnologia para a igualdade de gênero".  O objetivo do dia é celebrar as mulheres e meninas que defendem o avanço de tecnologias transformadoras e a educação digital. Também exploraremos o impacto da lacuna de gênero em matéria digital no aumento das desigualdades econômicas e sociais.
