This section is not aimed to give a comprehensive list of all the courses related to EO applications, as it is difficult to anticipate the specific needs of individual users. The list below contains basic, overview-level courses to start with, split into specific topics. After checking them, you can search for your topic of interest among Imperative MOOCs, NASA Applied Remote Sensing Training Program (ARSET), and EO College. More than that, we encourage you to participate in online and offline training sessions, provided by EUMETSAT and ESA.
