About the Deep Learning for Earth Observation: From Multi-Terabyte NetCDF to Anomaly Forecasting Course
Climate anomalies such as heatwaves, floods, droughts, and extreme precipitation are becoming more frequent.
This intensive program teaches you how to harness spatiotemporal deep‑learning models—CNNs, RNNs, LSTMs, ConvLSTMs, Transformers, and Graph Neural Networks—to predict these events from massive satellite and climate NetCDF/HDF5 datasets.
