Advancing Conservation and Community Resilience with Thermal and Hyperspectral Remote Sensing: Applications from NASA’s ECOSTRESS and EMIT Missions
This upcoming webinar will first highlight the use of ECOSTRESS data for urban heat analysis and mitigation. It will then introduce conservation-related applications of EMIT data, including habitat as well as plant trait and diversity mapping. Finally, the last presentation will explore a combined use of both EMIT and ECOSTRESS data for assessing pre-wildfire risk in Los Angeles, California. https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_P-WgfwuYQButrB-Cdjgm0Q#/registrationJanuary, 2026 - SCGIS Vancouver Meeting
We are currently planning the first meeting for SCGIS Vancouver members. This will consist of a workshop followed by a more general meeting of thechapter.In this first workshop we will generate and gather spatial layers from local open data portals and set them up into a cloud ready map database powered by open source QGIS and QField[Cloud] in a conservation setting, with a case study in a local Vancouver park!
These maps can be synced between field users on mobile (collecting the data) and desktop to provide real time updates on both ends.
