Aim
Programming and geostatistics for environmental data analysis will be introduced. Advantages of coding approaches are discussed, theory of coding and statistics covered and practical examples provided.
Content
Theoretical basics and practical examples of programming and geostatistics focused on application within remote sensing and GIS are covered. Basic functionality such as script structure, implementation, functions, loops as well as programming syntax using the R language are introduced. Moreover, statistical basics related to environmental analysis are covered ranging from spatial queries to spatial models, e.g. classification and regression.

Estimation of actual evapotranspiration in irrigation agricultural area of Uzbekistan using high resolution multi-frequent synthetic remote sensing data
Actual evapotranspiration (ETact) is an essential component of the water balance and its determination for large areas is difficult on regional scale and can be explored within an innovation laboratory. The use of remote sensing data to determine ETact is particularly...
Object based sequential masking classification using SAR and optical data
Remote sensing based crop mapping is still challenging when just relying on optical information as the only data source. Due to the unavailability of adequate optical satellite images the integration of SAR is promising and can be explored within an innovation...
Radiometric calibration, speckle reduction, geometric and terrain correction are essential preprocessing steps for SAR data. Within an innovation laboratory you will explore the different calibration and data preparation techniques for ground detected and single look...
Surface model creation from multi-source remote sensing data
Nowadays there are plenty of 3D data sources which offer the possibility to model and monitor structural attributes of the landscape via the derivation of terrain, surface and canopy models. The core idea of this research project within an innovation laboratory is to...
