His online academy has trained participants from over 60 countries. His learning materials on QGIS, Python, Earth Engine, and GDAL are used by more than 1 million people globally every year.

Ujaval is a world-renowned training facilitator who is passionate about advancing the use of open-source technologies in teaching and research. He has created and published two popular courses on Google Earth Engine: End-to-End Google Earth Engine and Google Earth Engine for Water Resources Management. He is also one of the co-authors of an upcoming book Earth Engine Fundamentals and Applications to be published by Springer in late 2022.

This session will cover techniques for processing remote sensing time-series data for analysis along with their implementation in Google Earth Engine. You will learn how to properly prepare your remote sensing time-series for regression and trend analysis. You will also learn about joins and advanced filters in EE.

The session will cover two broad topics
1. Time-Series Gap Filling: Many applications require replacing missing pixels in an image with an interpolated value from its temporal neighbours. We will complete examples that show how to replace cloudy pixels and interpolate missing time-steps.
2. Time-Series Smoothing: Smoothing filters are applied to a time series for removal of the noise. We will cover example implementation of moving-window smoothing and savitzky\u2013golay filtering.

Session pre-requisites: The session is geared towards existing Google Earth Engine users and requires familiarity with basics of working with image collections and filters.

Born and raised on the Navajo Nation Reservation, she has seen firsthand the impacts of water access and water quality challenges rural communities face. The Navajo Nation has wicked water problems related to anthropogenic activities and climate change. Now, as an Indigenous Scientist, she recognizes that opportunity to braid traditional ecological knowledge and western science together to address the wicked water problems. Taking a step beyond braiding the two knowledge systems together she has begun to use Earth Observation satellite imagery to tell a story of the changes being monitored from space and those observed from the landscapes. Nikki's passion is empowering communities through data access and capacity building. She believes that community involvement in research can significantly aid in seeking solutions for resilient and sustainable communities.

Ever wonder how the earth has changed over the past half-century? Celebrate 50 years of continuous earth observation by learning how to analyze Landsat imagery from 1972 to the present. For those of you who are already familiar with Earth Engine, we\u2019ll take you deeper into the exciting capabilities of LandsatLinkr, an algorithm that enables harmonized time series analysis of the entire Landsat archive. We\u2019ll walk through all the steps required to run LandsatLinkr including filtering and harmonizing fifty years of Landsat imagery across five different sensors: MSS, TM, ETM+, OLI, and OLI-2. We\u2019ll discuss what types of analyses are possible with this type of time series, including running a change detection analysis using LandTrendr.

We'll use the Python API with a Colab notebook to process the data and the JavaScript Code Editor to inspect and visualize results. We\u2019re looking forward to exploring with you!
