Google Earth Engine Training: Gennadii Donchyts, Corine Ten Velden, Arjen Haag, Jaap Schellekens, Hessel Winsemius

This document outlines the agenda for a Google Earth Engine training course. The course will introduce participants to Google Earth Engine and its capabilities through presentations and tutorials. Topics that will be covered include the Earth Engine platform, optical and SAR image analysis, and surface water detection. Tutorials will demonstrate how to work with raster and vector data, export images and videos, and perform tasks like cloud masking, classification, and change detection. Participants will learn how to analyze satellite imagery for applications like monitoring forests, land cover, water bodies, and flooding events. The course aims to equip participants with skills for conducting geospatial analysis using the computational power and petabyte-scale geospatial datasets available through Google Earth Engine.

JavaScript & Python API
// Make a median composite from two years of Landsat 7.
// Load the image collection.
var collection = ee.ImageCollection('LANDSAT/LE7_L1T');
// Filter it down to 2011 and 2012.
var filtered = collection.filterDate('2011-01-01', '2012-12-31');
// For each pixel, for each band, calculate the median and make an image
// of the result. The median tends to remove clouds, shadows, data gaps.
var medianImage = filtered.median();
// Add the image to a map.
Map.addLayer(medianImage, {bands:['B3', 'B2', 'B1'], min:35, max:170});
