NLT’s Chief Scientist and Senior Consultant Ran Goldblatt worked in partnership with International Initiative for Impact Evaluation (3ie) to lead a workshop on remote sensing and satellite imagery. Working with ten researchers from the African Population and Health Research Center (APHRC), the workshops focused on using geospatial data for impact evaluation from remote sensing technology. Participants of the event have written a series of four blogs about their experiences and findings from the event as part of 3ie’s blog series, Evidence Matters.
What's Inside?
The first blog in the series written by Sylvia Myuingo, Moussa Bagayoko, Aayush Malik, and Ran Goldblatt focuses on machine learning and remote sensing as new evaluation tools in impact evaluation. Read the first blog post as part of Evidence Matters.
