Amini Geospatial AI Series: Processing EO data for machine learning
Agenda
18:00 - 18:05pm - Welcome by Amy Bray, Data Scientist at Zindi
18:05 - 18:10pm - Introduction to Amini Data Scientists
18:10 - 18:45pm - Hands-on Notebook Walkthrough
18:45 - 17:00pm - Q&A
We will create a starter notebook together that cleans the inputted the data, view the data as a raster image along and separate the bands into a tabular format and learn about the bands of the data.
We will explore:
Python ecosystem (GDAL, Geopandas, Rasterio)
Basic preprocessing workflow
Quality assurance methods
Statistical concepts
Time series components
Seasonality in Earth observation
Trend Analysis
After this session, you’ll be ready to start building your first EO model! Don't worry if you're still unsure – we’ll build a model together in Webinar 3: Building your pipeline from data to model outputs.
