Google Earth Outreach is planning some exciting activities for the IUCN World Conservation Congress in September 2012 in Jeju, Korea!
The main event we’ll be hosting is a full-day Conservation Campus workshop event. Led by the Google Earth Outreach and Earth Engine teams, this training presents a new set of technology, tools, case studies and partnerships in support of environmental conservation. Participants will gain an overview and hands-on technical experience with:
-- Google Earth / Maps - environmental data visualization and storytelling in a 3D virtual world;
-- Google Earth Engine - analysis of global satellite imagery archive to measure deforestation, land cover change and more;
-- Google Maps Engine - geo data cloud-hosting and map publishing for large organizations;
-- Open Data Kit on Android - open source field data collection and community engagement via mobile devices.
