Workshop
Remote Sensing and Forest Resource Monitoring
In this workshop examples from different perspectives will be presented on issues related to monitoring and assessing land dynamics using time series analysis, such as those based on using satellite data. Focus will be on forest dynamics.
The workshop precedes the PhD thesis defense of Michael Schultz. You are also invited to attend the public defense of their theses in the Aula.
