As part of the efforts of the Training Division of the National Authority for Remote Sensing and Space Sciences, and under the auspices of Dr. Islam Abu Al-Magd, Chairman of the Authority, a set of comprehensive training courses were organized in the fields of remote sensing, geographic information systems, and land and aerial surveying. These courses included practical and theoretical training, whether at the Authority’s headquarters or online, with the aim of enabling students to gain the practical and theoretical experience necessary for the labor market.

Training projects: Students participated in implementing distinguished projects such as:

Analysis of land use change in the Euphrates River Basin using: Google Earth Engine.

Various GIS applications using: Google Earth Engine.

Monitoring urban expansion in the Nile Delta.

Building a geographic information system to monitor spatial changes in Mansoura city.

Assessing the impact of land use change on land surface temperature using remote sensing applications.

Agricultural drought assessment using: Google Earth Engine.

Grant: In conjunction with the discussion of graduation projects, the Authority granted 32 male and female students from the Faculty of Arts at Cairo University a free training opportunity for three months at the Authority’s headquarters, under the auspices of Dr. Islam Abu Al-Magd, Chairman of the Authority. The aim of the grant is to enhance students’ skills and link theoretical aspects with practical applications, which increases their chances of qualifying for the labor market.

These efforts reflect the credit of the Authority and the Scientific Training and Continuing Studies Division in enhancing the capabilities of youth and supporting universities, which contributes to meeting the changing needs of the labor market.
