Today we went out for a short field training session with our guest scientist Prof. Dr. Olanike Deji (Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria) who’s research stay is funded by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. Supported by our EAGLE students Ronja Seitz and Sunniva McKeever we collected some example images of maize fields in the rural areas around Würzburg. We see this training as a first step into future cooperation in the monitoring of agricultural areas in Nigeria.
