NASA’s Applied Remote Sensing Training for GW-Project Users
The Groundwater Project community is invited to participate in a series of free training courses being offered by NASA. This training teaches users about NASA satellite observations for groundwater management offered through NASA’s Applied Remote Sensing Training (ARSET) Program! ARSET delivers training on NASA’s Earth Observation data, analysis methods, and tools. NASA’s Earth Observations provide a global perspective and a wealth of data about Earth systems, enabling data-informed decision making. Data users can take advantage of timely and accurate data to track aquifer changes over time, identify contamination, assess water shortages, support forecasting future water demand, and much more. Working with remote sensing data can be complicated, which is why ARSET was created: to bridge the gap between data producers and data users. Since the program’s inception in 2009, ARSET has reached more than 170,000 participants from 180 countries and more than 17,000 organizations.
ARSET provides training on the use of satellite observations for agriculture, climate resilience, disasters, ecological conservation, wildfires, health, air quality, and water resource applications. The training courses are provided in a variety of formats including self-paced, online, and in-person. Recognizing the breadth of the audience connected to The Groundwater Project, ARSET has put together a list of recommended trainings (in English and Spanish) on groundwater, water quality, water resources, and hydrology.
