ABSTRACT

Extended Abstract (WORD/PDF)

Design and Implementation of an Educational Web Based Application for Remote Sensing Concepts

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing is an industry with a high workforce demand and even higher environmental importance. There are many programs in which young adults are introduced to classes/careers that, otherwise may not come into contact with. It’s these types of programs that expose young adults to the open possibilities and career paths that lay ahead of them, and in doing so these young adults are given a chance to discover their passions, and plan the rest of their academic careers accordingly. It was for this reason that we felt that the training modules within the GAIA Crossroads textbook needed to be updated to take a more modern approach.

Keywords: JavaStript, HTML, CSS, Gaia, QGIS, Multispec

The goal of CERSER is to develop and implement innovative and relevant education and research collaborations focused on ice sheet, coastal, ocean, and marine research.

Science Gateways Community Institute

https://sciencegateways.org
The Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) was established to provide resources, services, experts, and ideas for creating and sustaining science gateways. Science gateways are online interfaces that give researchers, educators, and students easy access to specialized, shared resources that are specific to a science or engineering discipline. For example, they may connect to or between instruments (such as telescopes or sensors), data collections, specialized software, or high-performance computing.


WHO WE ARE

The goal of CERSER is to develop and implement innovative and relevant education and research collaborations focused on ice sheet, coastal, ocean, and marine research. CERSER is also part of the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) which provides coordinating activities across the National Science Foundation, eventually providing services more broadly to projects funded by other agencies. Sharing expertise about technologies and strategies would allow developers to concentrate on the novel, the challenging, and the cutting-edge development needed by their specific user communities.
