The aim of these pages is to be able to find resources by type and topic, e.g.: video and audio lectures in orbits and trajectories.
A good place to look for class resources is the SUN YouTube Channel which can be accessed here.

| IEA & UKSA, Climate Data from Space 1-Day Workshop |
This one-day interactive workshop was funded by the UK Space Agency, via its community Climate Data from Space Stakeholders’ Group programme and delivered by Vicky Lucas, Training Development and Executive Education Manager at the IEA. As part of its objective to raise awareness of the high quality data which are produced as long-term Earth observation datasets, you can access the course presentations here (see right, below). The slides are still available on the website. |

| Geospatial Media & Digital Globe - Sustainable Development Goals and Earth Observation |
The United Nations adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in September 2015. The Agenda, with a list of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 associated targets, attempts to put the world on an inclusive and sustainable course by 2030. Food security; availability of clean water, affordable and clean energy, health and education; developing sustainable cities and communities; decent work and economic growth; sustainable management of natural resources and combating climate change are the primary target areas for the Agenda. Earth Observation data and information undoubtedly offers cost-effective technology means for the success of SDGs. |

| Hack a webcam to detect infrared radiation |
This video, part of a series of ESA teaching resources called 'Teach with space', demonstrates an experiment that can be performed by students to observe everyday objects in infrared light. This is achieved by modifying a cheap webcam to allow it to block visible light and receive infrared light.
You can see and download the video at the ESA website |
