Iga Szczesniak
Iga Szczesniak is a Project Developer at the Earth Observation Laboratory of the AIR Centre. She graduated with a degree in Geoinformatics and has since worked to support innovative applications of Earth Observation (EO) data using geospatial data and the Julia language. Prior to her current role, Iga conducted a socio-economic analysis of the EO market at the European Space Agency (ESA). In addition to her professional work, she serves on the organizing committee of JuliaEO 2023 - Global Workshop on Earth Observation with Julia. She loves talking about NewSpace, Synthetic Aperture Radar, and innovative applications of remote sensing data.
Sessions
With a low barrier to entry and a large ecosystem of tools and libraries that allow quick prototyping, Julia has great potential for geospatial development. SARProcessing.jl is a much open-source project with the aim of making SAR data processing easy and fast for everyone. This talk provides a gentle hands-on introduction to setting up and enjoying the SARProcessing.jl package.
A community of Julia developers working with Earth Observation was brought together at the JuliaEO2023: Global Workshop on Earth Observation with Julia. 300 hundred people registered and 40 attended in person. All major aspects were covered: big geospatial data, remote sensing, data processing, visualization, modelling, data science, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing. A Docker container and a Dataverse archive complement the notebook collection for reproducibility.
