Applied Remote Sensing: Bridging Classroom Tools with Real‑World Data

Applied Remote Sensing: Bridging Classroom Tools with Real‑World Data

January 28, 2026

In the second week of our remote sensing training within the WASCAL Climate Change and Land Use program at KNUST in Kumasi (Ghana), our NetCDA team deepens the applied component of the course. The students learn how to use, adapt, and write their own code in R and Google Earth Engine (GEE) to analyze satellite data. We also explore how remote sensing can be applied to the students’ specific research questions. These activities were complemented by a field visit, during which we discussed and practiced various aspects of data collection across different land‑use categories.

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. Aussnahmen sind KI generierte fernerkundliche Datensätze, die explizit für Forschungszwecke mit KI erstellt wurden, hier wird aber durch den assoziierten Text der wissenschaftliche Grund der KI generierten Bilder erläutert.
