Leonard Hammer handed in his B.Sc. thesis on “explaining spatial patterns of stork movements using remote sensing data”. He used stork data from the Lake Constance region and applied species distribution models on different behavioral states (nesting, feeding etc.) using Landsat TimeScan data. This data set provides temporal metrics for the last years, such as max, min and variance of the NDVI. Moreover, he tested different model performances and scaling effects and found partly that lower resolution data resulted in more sounds results. He was supervised by R. Remelgado and Dr. Martin Wegmann
welcome of the new EAGLE Earth Observation students
Today our new EAGLE students were welcomed and introduced to our remote sensing work. Tobias Ullmann presented various remote sensing projects at our EORC from Africa to the Arctic and also outlined our structure. Martin Wegmann introduced the general concept of EAGLE...
