Access to Space for All: Systems Engineering
MOOC (Online) by UNOOSA and NASA · Free · Current
To support future potential Access to Space for All applicants and to provide free and accessible educational content to all, the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) in collaboration with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is organizing a webinar series on Systems Engineering. The four-part webinar series will take place between November 2023 and January 2024. Each webinar will last one hour and consist of presentations and question and answer (Q&A) sessions. Only a limited number of applicants will be invited to join the live interactive sessions, where the participants will have the opportunity to directly engage with NASA experts. Given the relatively short duration of the course, NASA personnel will provide resources for reading materials prior to each webinar so participants can prepare for each session and maximize their experience. Two weeks after each webinar, the presentations and recordings will become accessible to everyone on this website.

Space Innovation Masterclasses: Earth Observation
Short course (Online) by Satellite Applications Catapult · Free · Past
This masterclass has been designed to help you move from a general understanding of EO data capabilities, to a clear method of identifying what type of data is right to address the challenge you are trying to solve. It’s not always about the highest resolution, the fastest revisit, or the most in-depth analysis, it’s about the right data to provide the right insights to your users. At the Satellite Applications Catapult, we employ a User Centred Design (UCD) approach to space enabled service development, putting the user at the heart of product, technology, or service design in order to de-risk its development. It’s this approach that we use to help people determine the right type of EO data for their application, and we want to share it with you. In this interactive online class aimed at UK businesses, members of the Geospatial Intelligence Team from the Satellite Applications Catapult will combine presentations with interactive tools, to help you frame your understanding of the challenge you are solving into a set of clear requirements to navigate the EO data landscape, and the commercial considerations of how you shape your service.
