Citieslab held Citiescourse Series 6: Mastering Carbon Stock Analysis in QGIS on July 12, 2026, presenting a specialized training program focused on carbon stock estimation and comparison workflows using open-source spatial tools. Through this session, participants were guided to strengthen their analytical capabilities in assessing carbon dynamics across different periods and study areas, supporting evidence-based approaches to environmental and urban planning.

The training was structured into four progressive modules: environment setup with QGIS installation and QgsProcessingAlgorithm configuration; carbon stock estimation from Dynamic World and ESRI World Cover classification imagery with empirical calibration using NDVI, NDMI, DEM, and Canopy Height; multi-period carbon stock comparison through raster-attribute join workflows, ΔC conversion to CO₂ emissions, and economic valuation; and a hands-on case study analyzing urban carbon stocks with complete HTML reports, vector maps, and troubleshooting discussions.

Stay tuned for more upcoming Citiescourse programs from Citieslab, featuring innovative and practical training in spatial analysis and sustainable urban planning.
