A MOOC on the role of satellite Earth observation in ocean monitoring.

This website provides all of the core videos, images, text and links to further reading from the original course on an open and continuous basis. The videos can be streamed or downloaded, and all images and transcripts are also available to download.

This course will introduce you to the powerful role of satellite ‘Earth observation’ (EO) technology in monitoring our oceans, and to the beautiful and inspiring nature of the imagery and data it produces.

The Copernicus MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) is an online training aimed at enabling anyone to understand how to use Earth Observation data in order to address societal challenges and generate business opportunities.

Participants will learn how Copernicus data can be used for evidence-based public policy, as well as to develop new products and services, open up new markets, improve quality of life, and make the most of limited resources in a sustainable way.

Explore how artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies are helping to advance Earth monitoring.

This is an e-learning course on sea-based sources of plastic pollution and marine litter. Developed by Open Universiteit, in close collaboration with UNEP, IMO, GESAMP and FAO, within the framework of the Global Partnership on Plastic Pollution and Marine Litter (GPML), this course promises to equip participants with invaluable knowledge and resources to address one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time.

This course addresses key sources of plastic pollution and marine liter with a sea-based origin and in particular Abandoned, Lost or otherwise Discarded Fishing Gear (ALDFG) and garbage from ships. It explores the causes of these types of pollution, their impacts, governance and solutions. The intention is to teach participants through action-oriented learning how they can apply successful and inspiring activities to their own local context, regardless of their profession or location. It will provide examples and case studies that will inspire leadership at different levels, thereby increasing awareness and stimulating creative solutions.

The course is accessible to all, free of charge, self-paced and available to access at any time, to support self-led learning and informed action. Upon satisfactory assessment of the final assignment, a certificate of participation can be issued.
