<div dir="ltr"><div>Hello,</div><div><br></div><div>I am a participant in the NASA DEVELOP National Program for college students and recent graduates. This term, my team's project focused on using open source GIS (specifically QGIS) in order to create tools and tutorials in an effort to aid beach managers in locating Sargassum (a type of seaweed) using Landsat sensors and environmental monitoring indices so that landfall predictions can be made. Please watch our team's video (an overview of our project) and "Like" it or leave us a comment or question. We were very pleased with the capabilities of the QGIS application, and I look forward to using it more in the future.</div>
