Interested in using drones and satellites for humanitarian work - or for any kind of remote-sensing field work?
The Harvard Humanitarian Initiative will be holding a Remote Sensing for Humanitarian Programs Workshop from June 20 - 24, 2016, on the Harvard Campus, and you're invited to attend.
This five-day training will be conducted by the Signal Program on Human Security and Technology at HHI, by faculty experienced in the use of remote sensing in humanitarian response, in real-world situations.
At the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Understand how satellites and drones are used in humanitarian response.
- Apply geospatial data to specific humanitarian activities.
- Develop geospatial collection and analysis plans for emergencies.
- Explore the ethical and regulatory issues related to these technologies.
