EAGLE Innolab Presentation “Earth observation data cube for the Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda”

On July 15, 2025, Jean de Dieu Tuyizere will present his Innolab on ” Earth observation data cube for the Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda” at 12:00 in seminar room 3, John-Skilton-Str. 4a.

 

From the abstract:

The increasing availability of Earth observation (EO) data offers unprecedented opportunities for environmental monitoring and decision-making. This project presents the development and application of an EO data cube tailored for monitoring vegetation dynamics in Volcanoes National Park (VNP) of Rwanda, by integrating large volumes of Sentinel-2 Level 2A data. The data cube facilitates efficient, consistent, and scalable analysis of vegetation changes over time. Thus, the system supports conservationists and policymakers by enabling timely and accurate assessments, thereby enhancing the capacity for informed ecological management and protection strategies within the park.

Hosting institution: Volcanoes National Park

1st Supervisor: Dr. Insa Otte
