Earth Observation science to understand a changing planet

Latest News

Our Research

Earth observation satellites have a unique vantage point on the world enabling us to identify, review and track regional and global trends consistently, and to trace their influence across the planet.

At NCEO, we harness data from satellites, aircraft, and ground-based instruments to study the Earth System and its continually changing nature, ranging from variations in atmospheric composition to the carbon content of forests.

Education

Free, online training courses, produced by NCEO experts, in a variety of Earth observation topics including data assimilation, data processing and monitoring atmospheric composition.

Please contact training@nceo.ac.uk with upcoming proposals for new technical training courses so that they can be included in our plans.
