The Visit NC State Program, to be held from December 2-4, 2018, is designed to offer prospective graduate students, and particularly those interested in the Ph.D., an opportunity to visit our campus, at no cost, to learn more about current research of our faculty and graduate students, and to experience the quality of our graduate programs.…
Located in South Texas along the Gulf of Mexico coastline, the Conrad Blucher Institute for Surveying and Science at Texas A&M University (TAMU-CC) is actively integrating unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) to address regional problems. This forum presentation will provide an overview of such activities, including coastal and maritime reconnaissance, crop and rangeland scouting, and research…
The disproportionate concentration of human populations along coasts and river mouths make coastal basins hotspots of change. One of the most visible ways in which mounting human pressures translate into negative consequences for coastal and estuarine ecosystems is through changes in nutrient and phytoplankton concentrations. This presentation will highlight results from recent studies that applied…
Discover the latest advances in cloud-based geospatial processing with Google Earth Engine. This forum covers the background of Earth Engine and presents datasets, platform capabilities, internal use cases, and a brief literature review. The event should be of broad interest to anyone with a geospatial component to their research, teaching, or study. Note that this event precedes a…
This hands-on training is for people who would like to learn about using Google Earth Engine to analyze big geospatial datasets, satellite imagery and/or vector data. Activities focus on accessing imagery, creating composites and running analyses over stacks of images. The training will consist of coding using the Earth Engine Javascript code editor. Previous coding…
The Professional Showcase is an opportunity for our graduating students to present their Capstone projects in front of the geospatial community at NC State. This includes student peers, alumni, faculty and staff from across the university, and our community and industry partners. This is a tremendous professional development and networking opportunity for our students. The…
Coastal systems are subject to water quality degradation through excessive anthropogenic nutrient loading and climate change. Common problems include hypoxia (low dissolved oxygen) and harmful algal blooms that threaten ecosystems, recreation, and fisheries. While multiple organizations are tasked with monitoring such systems, sampling is often sparse and disjointed, limiting our ability to assess water quality…
The Center for Geospatial Analytics will host its first annual Faculty Fellows Symposium on February 7th, 2019! This networking event will feature our Faculty Fellows' latest research and is designed to spark new collaborations among our fellows, current and prospective students and other researchers. All interested faculty, staff and students at NC State are welcome…
In this forum, Camilla Mahon with Mapbox will discuss the evolving landscape of hardware and software tooling in the remote sensing industry with emphasis on common open source software solutions for wrangling pixels, the implications of cloud computing and importance of scale, the variety of satellites, planes, and UAVs being used for data collection, and…
