Interesting free course in remote sensing. https://www.earthdata.nasa.gov/learn/trainings/fundamentals-remote-sensing
I’m always interested in how different visuals are created.
Here is a quick breakdown of the NASA course.
What it is: A free, 2-hour, go-at-your-own-pace online course.
Who it’s for:
Absolute beginners. You don't need any prior experience with satellite data or coding.
What you learn:
The basic science of how satellites take pictures of the Earth, the difference between the types of sensors they use, and the pros and cons of satellite data.
The visual payoff:
It teaches you how to use a free web tool called NASA Worldview to actually pull up and look at this satellite imagery yourself for any time and place.
Basically, it's a quick primer that explains the "how" behind the cool satellite visuals, without making you do any heavy math or programming.
