The Summer School on GeoAI for Urban Sensing took place in Tunis, Tunisia, on the sidelines of the up-coming Joint Urban Remote Sensing Event 2025 (2025.ieee-jurse.org).

 

This Summer School was co-organized by the Higher School of Communication of Tunis (SUP’COM) and the Image Analysis and Data Fusion (IADF) technical committee (TC) of the Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society (GRSS). It aimed to bring together researchers and students passionate about the intersection of Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (GeoAI) and Urban Sensing.

 

Prof. Dr. Riad Abdelfattah from SUP’COM invited our professor Hannes Taubenböck to give a presentation on the 4th of May. The presentation was titled “Remote Sensing for the Analysis of Global Urbanization”. In this lecture he gave an overview of the capabilities of Earth observation data and machine learning and AI approaches for a deeper understanding of the global urbanization processes.
