SUMMARY:Webinar: Hydrography90m\, pushing the boundaries of computational hydrology
DESCRIPTION:An open webinar on hydrology by the guest speaker Giuseppe Amatulli from Yale University.\n\n\nJoin this free webinar & contribute to the open-source community!\n\nREGISTER & LIVESTREAM HERE! \nHydrography90m: pushing the boundaries of computational hydrology \nStreams and rivers drive several processes in hydrology\, geomorphology\, geography and ecology. A global starized hydrographic network that accurately delineates streams and rivers\, along with their topographic and topological properties\, is needed for worldwide environmental applications. Using the MERIT Hydro Digital Elevation Model at 90m and by employing a suite of GRASS GIS hydrological modules\, we calculated the range-wide upstream flow accumulation and flow direction to delineate a total of 1.6 million drainage basins and extracted globally a total of 726 million unique stream segments with their corresponding sub-catchments. Besides\, we computed stream topographic variables comprising stream slope\, gradient\, length\, and curvature attributes as well as stream topological variables to allow for network routing and various stream order classifications. The validation shows that the newly developed Hydrography90m has the highest spatial precision and contains more headwater stream channels compared to three other global hydrographic datasets. \nMore information at https://doi.org/10.5194/essd-14-4525-2022 & https://hydrography.org/ \nREGISTER & LIVESTREAM HERE! \n\n\n\n\nAbout Giuseppe Amatulli\nDr Amatulli is a passionate forester and spatial modeller by training (M.Sc. & PhD in GeoScience and Forestry) and a computer scientist by trade. His research activity is mainly dedicated to spatial modelling\, GIS and remote sensing with special emphasis on tspecies distribution model\, areal distribution and potential shift under climate change conditions\, wildland fire occurrence and pattern recognition\, and wildfire risk assessment based on human and bio-physical parameters. \nUltimately\, he is dealing with geomorphology and hydrography analysis to derive high-accuracy flow estimation. He is daily dealing with high-resolution data in the context of complex and modern modelling techniques using stand-alone implementation processes under Linux environment. He uses open-source programming language and software (GRASS\, R\, PYTHON\, GNUPLOT\, AWK\, BASH\, QGIS\, OPENEV\, CDO) to accomplish large data processing in cluster processing keeping always in mind the ecological and geophysical aspects of the research study. He supports the use of open-source for geocomputation and machine learning modelling giving dedicated courses using (and maintaining) the www.spatial-ecology.net web page. \nREGISTER & LIVESTREAM HERE!

SUMMARY:Global Land Use and Land Cover Monitoring: Main Products and Major Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:About:\n\nAs the global population grows\, humankind continues to modify the land use and land cover (LULC) of the planet mainly motivated by the increasing demand for food and commodities production.  \nIn the last 50 years\, about 17% of land use on the Earth’s surface has changed\, an unprecedented conversion of natural landscapes modifying climate regimes\, reducing biodiversity and contributing to the overall global warming. This process has been under close monitoring for many decades through satellites orbiting the Earth (e.g. Landsat-8\, Sentinel-2\, PROBA-V)\, responsible for frequently delivering updated image data on a global scale. Thanks to the recent advances in Machine Learning\, high processing/cloud computing and remote sensing have allowed multiple research institutes to transform this large imagery archive into LULC mapping products\, contributing to a better understanding of the drivers behind land conversion and their impacts on the global environment. \nIn this discussion panel\, you will learn more about the main LULC products produced by the World Resource Institute\, the University of Maryland and Wageningen University\, including their methodology\, characteristics\, applicability\, limitations as well future perspectives. During the discussion\, the audience will have the opportunity to ask questions and make comments on specific topics. \nFollow the live stream with: \n\nMonitoring the pulse of the planet’s land and its nature-based carbon – Fred Stolle (World Resources Institute)\nGlobal land cover change and human impact on natural land – Matthew Hansen (University of Maryland)\nAdvancements in European efforts in global land cover mapping and map updating – Dainius Masiliunas and Nandika Tsenbazar (Wageningen University and Research)\n\nGeneral information:\n\nThis discussion forum is free-of-costs and can be followed in person or  via Teams’ streaming service;\nTo follow the live stream\, register on Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/global-land-use-and-land-cover-monitoring-main-productsmajor-perspectives-tickets-344785862797\nThe event is organized by the OpenGeoHub foundation in collaboration with Wageningen University;\nAfter the discussion panel\, we invite the participants to join the Happy Hour at the Spot bar (Orion building\, ground floor).
