New publication: Mapping animal paths using drones and deep learning We’re pleased to share our latest open-access research on automatically detecting animal paths in Africa’s Kruger National Park using drone imagery and deep learning. Published in Ecological Informatics, our study demonstrates how deep learning can be employed to identify the network of trails created by animals as they move across the landscape. Using a UNet […]

Can animal paths be automatically mapped using drones? Read about our new paper together with SANparks on animal path detection using UAVs and Deep Learning in Kruger National Park.

Burning down the savanna!Currently in the field with Luisa Pflumm, @antoniocastaneda.bsky.social & @annabischof.bsky.social for some first #UAS fire trials before we burn our plots next week. Thanks to the fire team for letting us join! #earthobs #fire #tree @uni-wuerzburg.de @earth-observation.org

Some of our researchers are currently conducting field work in Africa on #fire and #drought impact on #savanna #trees - more details soon on www.earth-observation.org

Mining-Driven Settlement Dynamics: Evidence from the Cobalt Belt in the Democratic Republic of Congo The Democratic Republic of the Congo is one of the poorest countries in the world despite its wealth of natural resources. Mining, whether formal or informal, is the country’s most important economic ...

I am proud to announce an ice-breaker conference proceeding about fast-pace settlement development within the South of the Democratic Republic of the Congo 🌍 It marks a starting point of my PHD journey 🎓

great group picture of our EORC staff and EAGLEs at ESA #LPS25 - a fantastic week with plenty of interesting discussions, talks and posters! #earthobs #eochat #remotesensing

But not without poster posing 😎

The RStoolbox poster at the ESA LPS25.

RStoolbox, an R package for remote sensing data analysis, is being presented at ESA #LPS25 today by @caipide.bsky.social and myself.

Come to poster P32 to chat about spatial predictive modelling, spectral unmixing, change vector analysis, radiometric correction, cloud masking etc. using R! #rstats

Having a blast at ESA's #LPS25 with @schwalb-willmann.de and a nice poster about animal paths 🐘 Swing by!

For completeness: Today,I finished my thesis work with a final presentation!
Thanks to @schwalb-willmann.de and @bevanda.bsky.social for their time and effort for supervising this topic of animal path segmentation 🐘! This was only the can-opener... 🥫

Thank you for your supervision! Also to @bevanda.bsky.social 🛰️
