NASA’s Applied Remote Sensing Training Program (ARSET) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) are pleased to offer a FREE micro-course “Using Spatial Data for Biodiversity.” This course draws from and builds on the webinar series “Using the UN Biodiversity Lab to Support National Conservation and Sustainable Development Goals,” which took place between 24 March and 7 April 2020.

Global biodiversity-based uses of remote sensing are crucial for conservation action plans. Featuring the UN Biodiversity Lab, NASA-supported projects, and country case studies, this micro-course is designed to guide policymakers, technical experts, and other stakeholders to advance their use of spatial data and achieve their commitments to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (2030 Agenda).
