A friendly, hands-on introduction to satellites, sensors, coordinate systems and your first maps in QGIS.
A friendly, hands-on introduction to satellites, sensors, coordinate systems and your first maps in QGIS.
This workshop is run by volunteer researchers and GIS professionals from the IKI / GrKs community. Sessions are practical: you will work on real datasets and leave with outputs you can add to your portfolio.
Day 1
How satellites see the Earth
Spectrum, orbits, resolution and reading imagery.
Day 2
Maps that tell the truth
Datums, projections, vector vs raster, styling layers.
Day 3
Your first GIS project
Download Landsat data, compute NDVI and design a layout.

IKI Academic Team
Researchers & GIS professionals, GrKs
Automate vector and raster workflows with GeoPandas, Rasterio and GDAL — and never click through the same task twice.
Analyse decades of Landsat and Sentinel imagery in the cloud — time series, composites and land-cover classification.
Plan a mission, fly, set ground control points and process imagery into orthomosaics, DSMs and 3D models.
