The Permafrost Discovery Gateway hosts a monthly webinar series on a Thursday at 09:00 Alaska time. The webinar aims to 1) connect the international science community interested in big data remote sensing of permafrost landscapes, and 2) provide the Permafrost Discovery Gateway development team with end-user stories (by the presenter and webinar participants), such as exploring tools the community needs to create and explore big data.
Abstract
The PDG development team is working on finalizing the publication of the pan-Arctic ice-wedge polygon map. But before the team calls the first version of this map final, they want to hear from you on how they can clean up the data and how they need to build the ImageryViewer tool to make this data easy to work with. The webinar will start with an overview of the dataset and what information it contains, briefly how it was developed, and what post-processing/cleaning that is in the works. The last half hour will be devoted to an open discussion.
