announcement | EAGLE MSc program

new lecturer: Dr. Christian Huettich

by EAGLE Team | Nov 2, 2017 | announcement, news

Dr. Christian Hüttich started working in October as lecturer at the Department of Remote Sensing at the University of Würzburg. Christian is teaching applied Earth observation and digital image analyses & GIS in the EAGLE graduate program. Christian is further working with the new German Aerospace Center for Data Science on strengthening the interoperability of citizen science approaches, in-situ data and Earth observation techniques for ecosystem monitoring and land management.

Christian worked as project manager at Jena-Optronik GmbH and Post-Doc Researcher at the Department of Earth Observation of the Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena. He received his degree as Diplomgeograph at the Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena in 2006. He got his PhD in 2011 at the Friedrich-Schiller-University in Jena. Working in several applied research projects in the academic and commercial sector (Uni Jena, Uni Würzburg in cooperation with DLR, Jena-Optronik GmbH) on applied Earth observation, he realized research projects on Earth observation of vegetation in the arid and semi-arid ecosystems, boreal forest monitoring, phenology mapping and climate change mitigation and adaption, health mapping, and wetland monitoring.

EAGLE 2017 students

by EAGLE Team | Oct 18, 2017 | announcement, news

Our new EAGLEs arrived and started their M.Sc. on Applied Earth Observation. During the official welcome all new students were introduced to the lecturer and the EAGLE students board. A joint dinner allowed to get to know everybody and address a variety of open questions to the older EAGLE students. The courses started today and will empower all students within the next months to analyze remote sensing data and apply them for different topics such as agriculture, ecological research, forest inventory or urban mapping. More updates on the progress of our students will be posted soon, also on their own webpage.

Winter term 2017 is about to start

by EAGLE Team | Oct 10, 2017 | announcement, news

While the “old” EAGLEs are spending their 3rd term doing internships or innovation laboratories in Italy, Portugal, Poland or Burkina Faso at various research organizations or companies, the new EAGLEs for the winter term 2017/2018 will be welcomed next week. The courses will start right after the welcome and will continue until March with a variety of optional courses on hyperspectral remote sensing, time-series analysis or Python programming for remote sensing. We are very much looking forward to welcome the new EAGLE students from 15 different countries!

final course presentations

by EAGLE Team | Jul 26, 2017 | announcement, news

Our EAGLE students had to present their work as posters, reports or oral presentations at the end of the summer term and could show impressive achievements and results of small research projects.Some impressions of their oral and poster presentations can be found below:

First EAGLE Midsummer Dialogue

by EAGLE Team | Jun 29, 2017 | announcement, news

Beside participants from the University of Wuerzburg and the DLR, also many colleagues from companies and a variety of national and international research institutions joined this event. The midsummer dialogue was organized by the EAGLE students. The students were keen to meet and discuss with many lecturers and guests the working conditions and opportunities in remote sensing. The organizers are very happy that this midsummer dialogue was a great success and we plan to organize it next year again with further topical talks and discussions.

The 1st EAGLE midsummer dialogue took place on June 23rd, 2017. Prof. Dr. Stefan Dech, chair of the remote sensing department and Prof. Dr. Christopher Conrad, EAGLE study program coordinator, welcomed more than 50 students and lecturers as well as current and former members of the department of remote sensing.
