July 5, 2024

Our EORC summer talks featured quite some nice topics and more than 100 attendees, current staff and students as well as former colleagues, alumnis, collaborators and colleagues from other departments, joined the talks.
We learned during the talks a lot about very different and new Earth Observation applications, the challenges of remote sensing analysis as well as the value and potential of it. The discussions during the session as well as afterwards stretched across the whole evening and showed the strong interest of the audience and the relevance of the talks..
Yesterday the two external presenters where Dr. Rainer Ressl, formally CONABIO, now EOmap and Dr. Rudolf Seitz, LWF plus our PhD student Sebastian Buchelt and our EAGLEs Lena Jäger and Sunniva McKeever about their ecological EO application within EURAC.
