Spatial Data Fundamentals in R: From Import to Insight Friday July 18, 2025 | 12:00pm - 3:00pm EST Andy Lyons, University of California - Agriculture and Natural Resources Workshop description: This workshop will cover the fundamentals of working with spatial data in R. Topics will include how R can complement desktop GIS, R packages for working with spatial data, importing vector spatial data from local and online sources, common spatial data manipulations including managing projections, working with attributes for querying and visualization, geoprocessing operations, spatial queries and joins, and automation. Basic visualization (i.e. mapping) will be presented but not in depth. R packages used will include sf, dplyr, arcgislayers, and tmap. Methods for working with raster data will be shown but not in depth. Best practices for using GenAI coding tools will also be discussed. The workshop format will combine short presentations with hands-on exercises using Quarto notebooks. By the end of the workshop, participants will have a collection of their own notebooks with working code recipes, and be better equipped to develop workflows and tackle new challenges. Experience level of participants: The workshop requires basic functionality with R and RStudio. If you have never used R before, this may not be the workshop for you. If you have used R but are very rusty, you'll probably be ok because most of the examples will be "ready to run". Familiarity with basic GIS concepts like projections, vector and raster data, attribute tables, etc., is also assumed. The instructor will provide links to two short introductory videos to watch that review some of the basic terms and concepts in R and GIS. Software Requirements. All participants are expected to have or create a free Posit Cloud account so you can run RStudio in a browser. The instructor will provide a link to a Posit Cloud project with all the packages, data, and exercises ready-to-go. Experienced R users who already use RStudio Desktop will be provided a setup script so they can run the exercises locally, but setup support will be limited to prior to the workshop (the instructor will have Office Hours the day before the workshop for anyone who needs help). Having two screens is highly recommended for everyone so you can work in RStudio on one screen and view the slides / demo on the other. Custom U.S. Geological Survey Topographic Maps On Demand – What’s New with the topoBuilder Application Friday July 25, 2025 | 3:00pm - 5:00pm EST Marcelle Caturia & Alex Kaufman, USGS Workshop description: Many remember U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) paper topographic maps with nostalgia. In 2022, USGS launched the topoBuilder application, enabling users to create customized topographic maps online using best available data from The National Map (TNM). These digital topographic maps, called OnDemand Topos, can be centered anywhere in the United States or territories. Since its introduction, the topoBuilder application has been enhanced with options including additional map scales (7.5-Minute and 1:100,000), customized layer display, and expanded export formats. This presentation will demonstrate the topoBuilder application and OnDemand Topos, while highlighting what is new and of particular interest to the Conservation GIS user community. Experience level of participants: Beginner Software Requirements. Ahead of the workshop, no downloads or account setup will be required. During the workshop, users will need to have a web browser on their desktop or mobile device. We would also like users to be able to download a PDF handout during the workshop. https://www.governmentjobs.com/careers/redmondor/jobs/4952208/gis-and-asset-management-analyst

HOW TO APPLY https://leidos.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/external/job/albany-or/geospatial-web-developer_r-00159052 Intro to the Integration of Animal Tracking and Remote Sensing: Open, Online NASA ARSET Training5/9/2025
NASA’s Applied Remote Sensing Training Program (ARSET) has opened a new open, online webinar series: *Introduction to the Integration of Animal Tracking and Remote Sensing.*
This two-part training will provide participants with an overview of animal tracking sensors, NASA’s history of animal tracking, and the types of remote sensing data that can be paired with animal telemetry.* Animals are sentinels of environmental change, and animal telemetry is a commonly used tool to quantify habitat use and help understand environmental changes. NASA data can be used to characterize the environmental parameters that infer the habitats that animals use. This training course will provide participants with an overview of animal tracking sensors, NASA’s history of animal tracking, and the types of remote sensing data that can be paired with animal telemetry. Because animal telemetry collects frequent animal location data, it is important to consider time-matched remote sensing in data analyses. In remote marine environments, for example, Level 3 and Level 4 products provide the most complete spatiotemporal coverage, such as OSCAR for ocean surface currents. Participants will then learn how to integrate telemetry and remote sensing data by applying a basic data standardization process to animal tracking data, visualizing the animals’ distribution via home ranges with utilization distributions, downloading remote sensing data, and characterizing animals’ habitats in a species distribution model to infer habitat use. The balance of tradeoffs (spatiotemporal mismatches; computational power and time) from pairing remotely sensed data with animal tracks will be discussed. Examples for both marine and terrestrial environments will be provided. *Learning Objectives: * 1. Identify the types of animal tracking tags and sensors that are commonly used in animal tracking. 2. Identify the types of remote sensing data and products that can be used for species distribution models and step-selection functions. 3. Recognize the process for integrating remote sensing and animal tracking data in species distribution models and step selection functions to facilitate an understanding of animal movements in relation to their environment. 4. Recognize key takeaways from examples of terrestrial and marine applications that inform and characterize animals’ habitats. *Course Dates:* May 20 & 22, 2025 *Time:* 12:00-13:30 EDT (UTC-4) *To Register:* *https://go.nasa.gov/4iPMFWW <https://go.nasa.gov/4iPMFWW> * *Audience:* This training is primarily intended for movement ecologists and natural resource managers. Remote sensing scientists developing products usable by the primary audience may also find this training of interest. *Course Format:* Two 1.5-hour sessions including Q&A. |
