The final project presentations of the spatial coding course by the EAGLE students revealed quite some impressive analysis achieved within the last couple of months. All analysis were done using R and presentations created within R using knitr. The aim was to run a variety of remote sensing analysis using R coding in order to increase the coding and remote sensing skills.

The project topics ranged from landcover change detection to sensitivity analysis of thresholds, covariates or training data concerning supervised classifications. All students added their scripts to a git and some even provided dedicated R packages for their specific analysis.

It was great to experience their coding skill development using remote sensing data over the past last months and to see their impressive achievements. Looking very much forward to the next courses.

Dr. Ariane Droin in front of the camera: RTL reports on HABITRACK

A film crew from RTL showed up in the Oberpfalz this spring, and joint a field campaign by the Habitrack BMFTR funded project. Dr. Ariane Droin, who leads the Würzburg side of the MONID HABITRACK project at EORC, walked the RTL team through what the project is...

A Weekend together: Where the Institute Talks About Itself

Once a year, or at least that's the idea, the Institute of Geography packs up and heads out to a remote place, this time Burg Rothenfels, an old castle not far from Würzburg, to spend a weekend doing something that almost never happens in the day to day grind:...

Graduation Day: EORC and EAGLE Celebrate at the Faculty Ceremony
