Using Satellite Data to Enhance Evidence Based Public Health Efforts at the Local Level

Workshop Description

Join us for an engaging workshop that explores the potential of satellite data in enhancing evidence-based public health efforts at the local level. Satellite imagery and remote sensing technologies have revolutionized data collection and analysis, providing valuable insights for policymakers, public health officials, and researchers. This workshop aims to equip participants with the knowledge and skills to leverage satellite data for informed decision-making and effective interventions in their local public health initiatives.

During this workshop, attendees will delve into the applications of satellite data in various public health domains, including disease surveillance, environmental monitoring, urban planning, and disaster response. Through interactive sessions, case studies, and practical exercises, participants will gain hands-on experience accessing, processing, and analyzing satellite imagery to inform evidence-based interventions tailored to local contexts.

Key Topics Covered

• Introduction to satellite data and its relevance to local public health efforts
• Overview of satellite sensors, data sources, and platforms
• Techniques for data acquisition, preprocessing, and analysis
• Using satellite data for disease surveillance and outbreak detection
• Environmental monitoring and assessing public health risks
• Urban planning and optimizing health infrastructure using satellite data
• Satellite data in disaster response and emergency management
• Integrating satellite data with other data sources for comprehensive analyses
• Ethical considerations and data privacy in satellite-based public health research

Who Should Attend

This workshop is designed for public health professionals, policymakers, researchers, urban planners, environmental scientists, and individuals interested in utilizing satellite data for evidence-based decision-making at the local level. No prior knowledge of remote sensing or satellite data analysis is required, although a basic understanding of public health concepts would be beneficial.
