Aim
Managing scientific projects as well as project proposals and developing them towards successful science is a common task for scientists as well as practitioner. In this course different approaches will be introduced and discussed.
Content
Research does mean much more than identifying crucial research question, finding appropriate data, developing algorithms and deriving new findings. While this course will contain all mentioned issues it will beyond highlight the challenges for raising money for research, writing proposals, building up networks, writing papers and doing presentations. All topics will be introduced by the examples of currently running research projects.

EAGLEs learn SNAP
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...
our EAGLEs train SAGA GIS
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...
RStoolbox now maintained by our EAGLE Konstantin Müller
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...
EAGLE students train scientific presentations
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...

EAGLEs high up in the mountains
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...
Article published by our EAGLE Laura Obrecht
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"....
EAGLE Xmas party
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...
EAGLEs presented their work in the Arctic and South Africa
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...
