Participants will learn about GOES-R and JPSS satellite product applications and models related to rainfall and flood events, and engage in hands-on exercises to investigate case studies using the products and models. At the end of the short course, participants will have developed an understanding of the satellite data and products pertaining to precipitation forecasting.
Registration for this course will open in October.
Participants will learn how NOAA GOES-R and JPSS satellite data and products are used and incorporated into models for the application, prediction, and decision support in protecting people and property during rainfall and flood events.
Through hands-on exercises, participants will have an opportunity to access and download GOES-R/JPSS satellite data products, as well as other products and models, to investigate case studies pertaining to rainfall and flood events.
The participants will come away with an enhanced understanding on how to generate and apply GOES-R and JPSS environmental satellite data products and models for monitoring and predicting rainfall and flood events in real-time situations.
