Harness Earth Engine
About this course
Harness Earth Engine is a beginner-level course designed for learners who want to explore environmental change using satellite data without managing complex data pipelines. Across a series of focused, hands-on lessons, this course introduces Google Earth Engine as a practical tool for analyzing vegetation patterns at scale. Learners begin by understanding NDVI and its role in environmental monitoring, then progress to working directly with the MODIS NDVI dataset inside Earth Engine. Through guided videos, readings, Coach dialogues, and hands-on practice, learners build skills to load satellite image collections, reduce time-series data into annual summaries, and visualize long-term vegetation trends using charts. The course emphasizes real-world application, preparing learners to create NDVI trend charts suitable for environmental or sustainability reports. By the end of the course, learners will have a clear, repeatable workflow for transforming raw satellite imagery into meaningful, report-ready insights.
