This first training, hosted at SENACYT’s premises, located in Panama City, Panama, involved the participation of representatives from several Latin American countries and from diverse institutions such as civil protection organisations, national institutes of meteorology, hydrology and topography, environment ministries, and space agencies.

The “Remote Sensing: Principles & Tools”  training aimed to equip participants with fundamental concepts related to EO by presenting Copernicus Sentinel satellite data and image processing tools. This session consisted of two modules:

• Introduction to EO, which covered the fundamental aspects shared by most EO satellite missions, with a focus on data provided by Copernicus.
• Digital Tools for EO, which introduces a collection of widely used open-source tools that ease the transition from raw EO data handling to the visualisation of the final product.
