Google Earth Engine Mini Summit in Tokyo 2018
Google Earth Outreach
Greetings!
We would like to invite you to Google Earth Engine Mini Summit in Tokyo 2018 hosted by the Google Earth Engine team from 15th to 16th March, 2018.
This Mini Summit will bring together specialists, researchers, educators and students in GIS and remote sensing in Asia-Pacific region. We hope this two-day hands-on technical workshop, presentations by guest speakers and hackathon will help you to advance your research or projects using Google Earth Engine.
Hands-on workshop will be led by Google Earth Engine experts like Nick Clinton from Google Earth Engine Developer Relations team. We designed two breakout sessions to collect, analyze, visualize the data by Google Earth Engine according to your skill level. It will be useful not only for beginners but also for advanced users. And you will be able to use your new knowledge during Remothon (Remote sensing X Hackathon) in the afternoon of the second day with other participants.
Please see the details of agenda on our event website.
