Within out EAGLE Earth Observation M.Sc. we also cover software applications which might not be used on a regular basis within our field of research but are sometimes highly useful to display our spatial data in a visually appealing way – and also potentially provides more insights.
Different examples are covered like a rotating globe with different landcover information such as true color and night lights or a more detailed map of a bridge and add glowing lights as well as reflecting water to make the data more realistic and display potential impacts of urban lightning on the surrounding.
More examples will be covered in the next weeks using Blender for our Earth Observation research field

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.
