Certificate of Achievement
has completed the following course:
Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Earth Monitoring
EUMETSAT and European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF)
This course introduced the European Union's Copernicus Programme, the data it produces and the potential of artificial Intelligence (AI). It explored the types of AI, machine learning, and deep learning algorithms. It looked at practical, real-world examples of using AI for Earth monitoring in the areas of ocean, land, atmosphere, and climate. It also provided hands on tutorials for using AI algorithms to analyse Earth observation data, using Python, in Jupyter Notebooks on the WEkEO platform.
