Two Webinar Announcements Protecting Foundations of Critical Infrastructure in Permafrost Regions and Maps with a Message
The Permafrost Discovery Gateway (PDG) announces two upcoming webinars in their monthly series. The first webinar, Protecting Foundations of Critical Infrastructure in Permafrost Regions, will feature Natalie Wagner (USDA) and take place Thursday, 25 April 2024 at 9:00 a.m. AKDT. The second webinar will feature Greg Fiske (Woodwell Climate Research Center) and Daniel Coe. This webinar is titled Maps with a Message and will take place 23 May 2024 at 9:00 a.m. AKDT.
This spring, the webinar series addresses using big geospatial data and remote sensing for community planning applications across permafrost regions.
The Permafrost Discovery Gateway is a National Science Foundation and Google.org funded intelligent data management platform created to support knowledge-generation in the Arctic permafrost region. The project is aimed to enable community-preparedness by creating big geospatial data products of permafrost thaw features from remote sensing imagery, developing AI tools to identify and track information within the big geospatial data, and building user-friendly online tools to enable scientific discovery, policy, and to empower Arctic communities facing permafrost thaw.
Additional information about PDG can be found on their website.
