Google Earth Engine brings together petabytes of Earth observation data — trillions of scientific measurements dating back over 40 years — along with tools for accessing and analyzing these data using Google's cloud infrastructure. Earth Engine is available online for scientists, independent researchers, and nations who want to mine this massive warehouse of data to detect changes, map trends and quantify differences on the Earth's surface. Applications include: detecting deforestation, classifying land cover, estimating forest biomass and carbon, measuring water availability, and calculating the impacts of natural disasters.

The workshop will be held on August 29th and 30th, 2019 and will run from 9:00am to 6:30pm.

The workshop will be held at Google Indonesia Office @ Pacific Century Place, Jakarta, Indonesia. Please see our Location page for more info.

40 applicants will be accepted to participate in the workshop.

The training, drinks, and light meals provided during the workshop are free to participants. The participants need to cover the cost of any travel to the workshop venue and accommodation fees if necessary.

The training will be conducted in English.

The workshop will teach highly practical tools which organizations can use to collect, analyze, visualize, and publish map data using the power of the cloud. The workshop also provides a chance for participants to network, discuss common issues and challenges.

Please bring a laptop, and a charger as this is a hands-on workshop on Earth Engine. Wifi service will be provided.
