EO4SD-Urban Webinar Series Now Available as Recordings

The EO4SD-Urban project is pleased to release the recordings of a free webinar series on satellite-derived geospatial information for urban development. The webinars are part of the capacity building offered to our project partners (development bank staff, technical staff from participating cities, etc.).

The webinars introduce the latest methodologies of obtaining geospatial information from satellite Earth Observation (EO) data for urban development. The presenters are experts of the EO4SD-Urban consortium together with some of the project partners.

The webinar series will:

• Increase your understanding on how to improve sustainable urban development with applications of Earth Observation,
• Teach you about the latest freely available and commercial satellite data, and
• Provide insight into different use cases in urban development activities.
