At the opening of the Center for Artificial Intelligence and Data Science (CAIDAS) on Friday, April 18, 2024, we had the opportunity to present the research of our Earth Observation Research Cluster (EORC) and of the Earth Observation Center (EOC) of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) to representatives from politics and society. Our EORC managing director Dr. Martin Wegmann, our PhD student Ariane Droin, our EAGLE student Anna Bischof and our professor Hannes Taubenböck presented the work to Prof. Dr. Paul Pauli, the President of our Julius-Maximillian’s University as well as the vice president for research, Prof. Caroline Kisker.

During this event various remote sensing analysis were shown, from urban tree mapping or urban heat islands up to Lidar tree height, vegetation structure as well as further diverse derived geoinformation from drone flights for forest monitoring or drones/UAS as support after a crisis situation to help decision-makers. In order to visualize our research we used an interactive touch-table to allow users to pan and zoom through the data plus change the content displayed on the table.
