Training Resources

The Stakeholder Engagement Program (SEP) curates relevant training resources focused on how to access and use SNWG products for both first-time users and those more experienced. For each product, resources are aggregated into the following categories: Fundamentals of Remote Sensing, Missions and Instruments, Data Products and Descriptions, Data Access and Code Examples, and Use Case and Application Examples.
