Landsat and Earth Engine - Geoscience at your fingertips!

We're going to explore the amazing open data world of Landsat satellite imagery (possibly even Landsat 9!) using Earth Engine.

Earth Engine is a planetary-scale platform for Earth science data & analysis. For more details, check out the FAQs: https://earthengine.google.com/faq/

The above link will also help you get instructions on how to sign up prior to our session. Please do this ahead of time if you want to participate hands-on as it could take a number of days to get set up.

NOTE - this platform, for our purposes, is for non-commercial uses in research and education. There is an avenue to get a commercial license, but we won't address that. Also note that the terms only allow you to use ONE google account for this platform, so choose your registration email wisely. Or just come to the meetup to absorb information and don't worry about setting up an account. :)

The USGS started publicly releasing Landsat 9 data on Feb 10th:

Come explore the candy store of Landsat with fellow mapping and geoscience nerds and hobbyists!
