A Primer on Remotely Sensing Water Quality Conditions
Thursday July 23, 2026 8:30am - 9:20am CDT
BCC - Mason (33 Class / 60 Theater)
The growth of remotely sensed products dedicated to water quality creates exciting opportunities for the USGS. However, navigating through all these products can be confusing, especially for those just getting experienced with remote sensing of water resources. To orient end users with a working knowledge of existing data products and tools for remotely sensing water quality, this session will demonstrate several products recently developed by the Water Mission Area’s Remote Sensing of Water Quality project, including those dedicated for monitoring temperature, chlorophyll, and turbidity. During this session, instructors will present concrete, potential applications, where remotely sensed products can improve efficiency, decision making, and safety for hydrologic technicians. Following these worked examples, the session will be dedicated to attendees exploring tools on their own and sharing feedback with the instructors on how best to tailor these products’ continued development.

Satellite Data to Support Water Science Center Operations
Thursday July 23, 2026 10:00am - 11:20am CDT
BCC - Mason (33 Class / 60 Theater)
In this presentation, students will learn to access, view, analyze, and interpret satellite data for use in hydrologic monitoring. Participants will leave being able to easily access data useful for station planning and monitoring, specifically: (1) access and interpret water extent data (DSWE), (2) access and interpret water surface elevation data (SWOT), and (3) access and interpret remotely sensed water quality data (RSWQ), (4) access and query evapotranspiration data, and (5) view daily high-resolution satellite imagery (PLANET). Example applications include:

- Situational awareness to improve site visit safety and efficiency
- Viewing current conditions to support site visit planning
- Analyzing historical data to put current observations into context when working records
- Providing cooperators with easily accessed data during network planning discussions
