Visualizing Land Cover and Land Use Change with NASA Satellite Imagery

February 24 & February 26, 2026 11:00–13:00 & 14:00–16:00 EST (UTC-5) Land cover and land use change (LCLUC) describes the myriad of ways our world changes around us. Every new building, each vacant lot, the expansion and retreat of forests or wetlands, are all examples of LCLUC. These changes may be slow or sudden, but understanding the ways in which our landscape is changing gives us the opportunity to better anticipate and avoid problems which may arise. This two-part training covers some of the ways that we can use NASA data to determine what is happening on the ground and how that changes over time. Participants will see examples of supervised and unsupervised classification models implemented in the R statistical coding language, and improve their understanding of how these models can be used to produce maps and metrics of LCLUC.
