On behalf of the Pacific GIS and Remote Sensing Council (PGRSC), we welcome you to Week 6 of our series to promote free GIS and remote sensing resources (webinars, instructional videos, technical manuals, e-books, etc.) to increase capacity, awareness, and skill development for the Pacific Islands geospatial community. Last week, we advertised a free massive open online course (MOOC) hosted by Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc (ESRI) on October 22, 2025 for working with various imagery. This week we will explore more imagery exploitation tools such as the GeoAI: Artificial Intelligence for Geospatial Data project – a Python library for image classification and segmentation.
Week 6: Are you interested in building models to identify and classify features and objects in your remote sensing data? GeoAI is a powerful Python package for integrating artificial intelligence with geospatial data analysis and visualization. More information including installation instructions and tutorials on detecting cars, ships, trees, etc. from satellite and lidar data can be found at the project’s webpage listed below:
We hope that these materials are beneficial to you. Please let us know if you have a free GIS or remote sensing resource that you would like to promote as well so others can learn from them.
