Dear Sir/Madam

Greetings from IIT Tirupati Navashikar I-HuB Foundation!!!

We at IITTNiF a Technology Innovation Hub in Positioning and Precision Technology are proud to organize our next Workshop on " Google Earth Engine Capacity Building " in collaboration with Google. The workshop is intended for students (preferably PG), research scholars, faculties, professionals, and other change-makers.

About Workshop

There is something so surreal and elegant about observing the earth from space and this is one of the main reasons that "Remote Sensing" is an appealing technology for most people around the world. Google Earth Engine, is a new computational tool that allows for “global-scale analysis of satellite imagery” but in an easy-to-use, free, and Googlefied way. The main benefits of bringing in GEE are:

1. Demystification of remote sensing
2. Moving Remote Sensing to Cloud
3. Bridge the digital divide between developed and developing countries with regard to Remote Sensing.

This workshop will provide a vast platform to people across the country who want to build their careers in these areas. Interested candidates can register on our website using the link https://iittnif.com/registration
