The Objective of the course is to Introduce the use of Earth Observation for Hydrological analysis in the context of Integrated Water Resources Management. Participants will be provided with an overview of literature on the state of observation networks and the use of EO in Hydrological Analysis. Participants will be introduced to the Google Earth Engine platform as a tool for the downloading and analysis of remote sensing datasets. Participants will be tasked to complete an assignment on the downloading and creating maps of relevant datasets.
