EAGLE News and Updates

Various very specific scientific software packages are developed to serve specific purposes like the SNAP tools for Sentinel fleet data processing. Our EAGLEs have to learn the wealth of relevant software packages for our field of research and get to know the pros and...

Within our EAGLE MSc program our students are learning quite a variety of programming environments and software programs, however due to the high diversity of available (open-source) programs our students have to apply their spatial research skills to learn a totally...

we are very happy that our EAGLE Konstantin Müller took over the maintenance and further development of the remote sensing R stats package RStoolbox. Of course the "older" developers like Jakob Schwalb-Willmann (also an old EAGLE) and Benjamin Leutner (also our old...

Within our scientific presentation course within the EAGLE Msc our students also have to learn how deliver good scientific presentation within a large lecture room and for a larger crowd of scientists. Therefore we expose them to the large number of bsc students...

Some of our EAGLEs went up to the research station on the highest mountain of Germany to explore the research activities conducted in this area and discuss what remote sensing can contribute. The met ecologists, botanists and other disciplines and learned what Earth...

Just before the end of last year Lauras manuscript about fractional cover analysis in Namibia got published! Her research is titled "Mapping Changes in Fractional Vegetation Cover on the Namib Gravel Plains with Satellite-Retrieved Land Surface Emissivity Data"....

After a bit more than 2 months of intense Earth Observation courses and lots of studying of radar, cloud computing, r and python programming and much more the EAGLEs are celebrating the end of the year and two weeks break before the second part of the winter terms...

Today 5 of our EAGLE students presented their work in the past months in the Arctic using remote sensing data, space-borne and UAS, for ecological and conservation applications. Beside their very impressive scientific results did they also report on their general life...

As part of the lecture by Claudia Künzer all EAGLEs of her course also visit the Earth Observation Center of DLR in Oberfpaffenhofen and listen to various talks by remote sensing scientists working in Oberpfaffenhofen: Patrick Sogno, an EAGLE alumni and also PhD...

One of our EAGLE lecturer; Dr. Doris Klein, is not only teaching remote sensing to our international EAGLE students but also to future astronauts! Great to see that earth observation is also trained within other disciplines than our own specific remote sensing MSc....

our EAGLE student Konstantin Müller created a QGIS plugin and a corresponding R package for easy point density vizualisation. Create way to learn how to build QGIS plugins and R package for spatial analysis. QGIS plugin: The Bestagon QGIS plugin allows easy density...
