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.

field course on remote sensing in the Bavarian Forest NP
The course on remote sensing for biodiversity analysis covered 10 days of field work, R coding, testing field methods such as UAVs and lots of hiking in the National Park Bavarian Forest. This year we had sunny and rainy weather and on the peaks also snow which made...
student perspective on the importance of remote sensing training
Some of our former M.Sc. students published a peer-reviewed article about the importance of remote sensing training approaches, how it helped them in their career and what need to be improved. The article is titled: “More than counting pixels – perspectives on the importance of remote sensing training in ecology and conservation” and published in Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation.
