GeoSTAC
is a cooperative between universities to serve their
respective communities in training and applying the technologies
of Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Remote Sensing, and Field
Mapping/Global Positioning Systems (GPS) techniques.
GeoSTAC
was formed with cooperating universites to assist in training
by offering online exercises, workshops, and other training opportunities
in their communities. GeoSTAC also supports
geospatial training in K-12
education.
GeoSTAC
is a developing program integrating state-of-the-art technology
into a usable format for educators, and land and resource managers.
Participants may include government and tribal agencies, the private
sector, not-for-profit organizations, and educational institutions.
GeoSTAC
training programs include on-line
exercises, field and laboratory workshops, short courses,
semester-length courses and topical series.

Working
with the University of
Idaho and the Idaho
Department of Water Resources, Idaho State University
has successfully completed the first on-site GeoSTAC field
workshop using Landsat Data and the SEBAL
algorithm to monitor evapo-transpiration. The SEBAL application
is a state of the art study incorporating Remote Sensing
and GIS to monitor evapo-transpiration in Southern Idaho
and many other places all over the world. |
