Fall ‘19

Earth Engine @ Yale

We are a group of students, researchers and developers at Yale using Google Earth Engine for spatial analysis on a wide range of topics. We meet weekly to share ideas, troubleshoot and work on code in the same space. In collaboration with Prof. Dana Tomlin’s Geospatial Software Design class, this group aims to provide a space for mentorship and developing resources that will be useful to the broader Earth Engine user community.

Join us!

Our meetings are on Mondays from 3 to 4pm.

Our meeting venue is the Yale Center for Earth Observations lab in the Environmental Science Center, Room 119 on 21 Sachem St.
