Summer School Image Analysis for Plant Phenotyping

Are you looking for a complete overview of image analysis techniques for automatic plant phenotyping? The Summer School will provide a mixture of underlying theory and practical hands-on training. You will have the chance to work on actual plant image analysis issues. These problems will challenge you to use and merge the theory in practice.

If you want to experience, learn and get a ‘picture’ of the state of art related to current imaging technologies and analysis tools this is the place to be. My expectations on this were fullfilled in all aspects! A group of enthousiastic teaching staff from WUR but also from abroad made this all possible for a group of 11 nationalities.
