Interested in using satellite imagery for search and rescue? In the @sentinel_hub webinar @ai6yrham will talk about the use of EO data in SAR, showing his techniques in using sat🛰️ data to locate people. Info and Register for free here ▶️ events.teams.microsoft.com/event/d6739b04… #DisasterTech
Exciting news from the #EarthEngine data team 📢 #Sentinel1 #SAR data latency is reduced from 1.5-2 days to about 12 hours; a significant improvement for crisis response and near-real time Earth monitoring. developers.google.com/earth-engine/d…
We sped up the ingestion of Sentinel-1 assets into Earth Engine. You should now see new images appear in about 12 hours instead of 1.5-2 days.
We built the new processing platform for the @DisastersChart entirely on STAC enabling unified data pipeline for processing satellite imagery from contributing Space Agencies. It reduces the high resolution data analysis latency for rapid response to natural disasters. 3/6
Great example about how satellite imagery can be used to uncover and investigate local issues! 🛰
The oil industry in north east #Syria is increasingly resorting to construction open-air oil wast pits due to lack of proper oil facilities and equipment. Here's a @planetlabs 2016-2021 timelaps of an oil pit south of the Jabisah oil refinery.
Here are some nature-based solutions to address the climate crisis #ClimateAction
The sad start of the 2021 #wildfire season 🔥 Satellite images are an important tool for early detection and fighting of such wildfires, especially in isolated and uninhabited areas!

Call for contribution: We want to create learning resources for first time users of #EarthObservation data and special interest groups, like journalists or humanitarian organisations. Please help us: 👉 learn.openspacedata.org #EOchat #Journalism #humanitarian #TechForGood
Earth observation can be an important tool in humanitarian work. It can make the extent of #HumanitarianCrisis visible: Take a look at the expansion of #Kutupalong from 2016 until today... It is the world's largest #RefugeeCamp. Nearly 600,000 people are living there.
