Sessions
Strap yourself in and join Martijn and Luka on an Epic journey through the EcoDataCube, an analysis-ready, totally open multidimensional spatiotemporal data cube covering most of Europe! After explaining how large amounts of 30m and 10m earth observation data was aggregated, gap-filled, and used to create 20 annual land cover maps with 43 classes at 30m resolution, they will show you how to access the 200+ cloud-optimized data sets yourself with your browser, GIS, and Python code.
Any leftover time will be used to discuss why no dataset is truly analysis-ready, how no map is perfect, and a collaborative attempt to create the ultimate land cover legend.
