Session Take-Aways:
- GOES-R Series WebApps (http://cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/education/goesr/webapps) provide learners with easy to use apps to learn about combining satellite channels into RGB, spatial resolution, and the spectral bands of GOES 16/17
- The Explore Atlantic Storms Jupyter Notebook provided secondary educators hands on experience (some for the first time) with viewing, modifying, and playing with (python) code.
- SuAVE Survey Analysis via Visual Exploration is an incredibly powerful and fun tool to explore and use in the classroom.
