About the Course
Agricultural and climate change intervention may fail to achieve their required outcomes and impacts due to non-use of GIS and remote sensing technologies. A geographical information system (GIS) is a collection of hardware software, and procedures to collect, manage, retrieve, manipulate, analyze and display spatial data. Remote sensing is the acquisition of information about an object or phenomenon without making physical contact with the object and thus in contrast to on-site observation, especially the Earth. This training workshop will equip participants with handy skills for use in spatial and Earth Observation (EO) as a tool to integrate knowledge about climate change, agriculture, and food security in a meaningful and innovative way.
Target Participants
This course is useful for agricultural professionals who use spatial data as part of their work and who need to make decisions from such data.
