Do you want to become an Earth Observation scientist, working with a variety of sensors, techniques and other ways to monitor our planet? Apply before May 15th to our M.Sc. program and join our international group of EAGLE students.
You will learn how to apply space-borne sensors such as Sentinel-1 or Sentinel-2 as well as UAS based sensors for small scale mapping of environmental features in agricultural landscapes, high mountain ecosystems or arctic environments.
Apply your remote sensing skills in various fields, from geography to conservation, collaborate with farmers, city planner, biologists or animal-environment scientists on the application of Earth Observation.

Überwiegend werden eigene originäre Texte und Bilder des EORC genutzt, jedoch sind einige Inhalte von blog post Texten teilweise mit Hilfe von KI überarbeitet worden und einige Bilder sind ganz mit KI erstellt, die jedoch deutlich keine photorealistische Darstellungen abbilden.
