Space Applications Learning Hub: Earth Observation (EO) & Graphical Information System (GIS)
Course (Online) by Royal Institute of Navigation (RIN), Space Professionals, Geospatial Ventures Limited, and Space Skills Alliance · Free · Current
This course is part of the wider Space Applications Learning Hub (SALHUB) training courses which will deliver expert-led training modules in systems engineering, data/artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) and commercial operations across positioning, navigation and timing (PNT), Earth observation (EO/GIS) and satellite communications (SatComms). EO and GIS are an integral part of the operations of a wide array of organisations. These skills are increasingly in demand across the widest range of sectors & span disciplines from understanding online mapping systems & environmental monitoring to urban planning. Our EO and GIS courses are designed for anyone considering moving into the space or indeed anyone with a desire to understand the use and applications of EO and GIS. They are also relevant to people seeking new insights or those who are keen to deepen the EO and GIS skills. Our courses will be aimed at foundation skills with learning moving to intermediate levels at later stages. The Earth Observation and GIS Training is a modular course providing both an overview of EO and GIS and detailed insights into EO and GIS systems and applications. The foundation level will include an Introduction to EO and GIS, covering an overview of EO and GIS, their uses and benefits, and different configurations (including satellite-based EO and GIS software). More detailed modules will include Data Acquisition and Sources, covering the types of EO data (optical, radar, thermal) and GIS data sources (spatial databases, remote sensing, field surveys); Data Processing and Management, focusing on preprocessing EO data and managing GIS data; and System Specifications and Design, discussing how to write EO and GIS system specifications and design resilient systems. Further modules will explore Data Interpretation and Analysis, remote sensing techniques, AI/ML in EO and GIS, Performance Monitoring and Maintenance, and practical workshops using QGIS with Copernicus data. The course culminates with a module on System Integration and Application, considering technical and societal benefits of EO and GIS.
Space Applications Learning Hub: Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT)
Course (Online) by Royal Institute of Navigation (RIN), Space Professionals, Geospatial Ventures Limited, and Space Skills Alliance · Free · Current
This course is part of the wider Space Applications Learning Hub (SALHUB) training courses which will deliver expert-led training modules in systems engineering, data/artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) and commercial operations across positioning, navigation and timing (PNT), Earth observation (EO/GIS) and satellite communications (SatComms). PNT enables all aspects of everyday life, from smartphone apps to enabling critical infrastructure such as communications and power networks. PNT is a growing area and our courses are designed for anyone considering moving into a sector using PNT, anyone who has just made that move, or indeed those wanting new insights and to deepen PNT skills. Courses will be offered at foundation and intermediate level. The foundation courses will provide a vital bedrock of awareness and knowledge needed by everyone involved in using or specifying positioning or timing as part of a system or application. Intermediate level courses go deeper, into system engineering design, data analytics for PNT systems and how to interpret and apply PNT data, including use of AI/ML techniques. This course will address how to write positioning and timing system specifications for any use case, best practices for resilient PNT, a review of data sources, types of data and outputs from positioning and timing systems, interpretation and analysis of PNT data and a special module on timing. There will be modules on bringing everything together into a system-of-systems capable of performing resiliently. We will also cover how to track and maintain performance for your use case, flagging issues and how to plan to address them.
Space Applications Learning Hub: Cross-Cutting modules in System Engineering, Data/AI/ML and Commercial Operations
Course (Online) by Royal Institute of Navigation (RIN), Space Professionals, Geospatial Ventures Limited, and Space Skills Alliance · Free · Current
These cross-cutting modules are part of the wider Space Applications Learning Hub (SALHUB) training courses which will deliver expert-led training modules in systems engineering, data/artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) and commercial operations across positioning, navigation and timing (PNT), Earth observation (EO/GIS) and satellite communications (SatComms). These training courses are structured as three courses: PNT, EO/GIS and SatComms. Before the PNT, EO/GIS and SatComms courses begin, there will also be an introductory week of cross-cutting content that explores systems engineering, data/AI/ML and commercial operations. These sessions will cover foundational modules that will act as a leveller for attendees coming from different sectors. The System Engineering modules will include focus on system engineering from a space industry perspective and include an Introduction to Space System Engineering; System Context, Requirements and Design; and System Verification, Validation and Qualification. The Data/AI/ML modules will focus on an introduction to the concepts of AI and ML from the perspective of the space industry. They will include an introduction to AI and ML, satellite & space data contexts, data processing and also introduce task setting including supervised learning, un-supervised learning and reinforcement learning. The Commercial Operations modules will provide an introduction to commercial skills aimed at space industry professionals. They will cover an overview of developing a Product and Service Strategy, Product and Service Launch and Access to Finance aimed at the space industry.
Space Applications Learning Hub: Satellite Communications (SatComms
Course (Online) by Royal Institute of Navigation (RIN), Space Professionals, Geospatial Ventures Limited, and Space Skills Alliance · Free · Current
This course is part of the wider Space Applications Learning Hub (SALHUB) training courses which will deliver expert-led training modules in systems engineering, data/artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) and commercial operations across positioning, navigation and timing (PNT), Earth observation (EO/GIS) and satellite communications (SatComms). SAL-HUB will offer a modular course providing both an overview of Satellite communications and some detail in terms of Satcom systems and business needs. The foundation level will include an Introduction to Satellite Communications covering an overview of uses and benefits, and different configurations (including low earth orbit and geostationary). More detailed modules will include Use Cases to Requirements covering an understanding of common use cases for Satcom; Regulation & Standards; Satcom System Design including satellite capacity, ground segment system management and related services; network design and link budgets; Management Systems; 5G & Satellites; System Design and Business Requirements and Techno-Economic Analysis considering technical and societal benefits of SatComms.
