A webinar, entitled as ‘Citizen Science in a remote sensing context: From examples to best practices‘, was organized by the H2020 WeObserve project, aiming to present success stories where citizen science data are combined with conventional sources of Earth Observation data. The webinar took place on Wednesday, May 6th at 11:00 a.m. CEST. Focus was given to showcase best practices arising from the activities of H2020 Citizen Observatories (LandSense, GROW, GroundTruth 2.0, SCENT), while illustrating how the integration of Earth Observation and citizen science can improve environmental monitoring.
During the webinar, participants learnt about innovative citizen science tools for collecting data, land cover mapping through machine learning and citizen science data, remote sensing for citizen science-based phenology monitoring and validation of remotely sensed soil moisture using crowdsourced measurements.
