Our Department Head Prof. Hannes Taubenböck was honored to welcome Prof. Alejandra Stehr from the Universidad de Concepción and Prof. Rodrigo Cienfuegos from the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile at the Earth Observation Center (EOC) of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in Oberpfaffenhofen…
At the Earth Observation Research Cluster (EORC) at the University of Würzburg, Dr. Martina Wilde combines geomorphology, natural hazard research, and remote sensing to better understand environmental risks and landscape dynamics. Her work focuses on landslides, slope stability, and the use of…
The availability of social media data and tools to (semi-)automatically analyse them has sparked research in various fields to assess human behaviour, opinions and attitudes on a global scale. In a new paper titled “Integrating Corpus Linguistics and NLP Methods to Explore Social Media Discourse…
It really is quite something where our work takes us from time to time – be it the ESA headquarters, some German ministries, or fieldwork in bad weather in some forest. This time, our work has taken us to the venerable stage of the Münchner Lach- und Schiessgesellschaft. It was an honor for us that…
We are pleased to congratulate Julia Rieder on the successful defense of her PhD thesis! Over the past years, Julia has investigated how European beech forests respond to severe drought events and which factors determine whether individual trees survive or die under increasing environmental stress.…
Dr. Ariane Droin presented the works of her PhD-Thesis at the Geo-Kolloquium of the Technical University of Graz with the title “Hochauflösende, skalenübergreifende Modellierung von Nachbarschaftserreichbarkeiten im urbanen Raum” on the 17th of June 2026. She showed that objective urban parameters…
A while ago, we shared a lighthearted post about our EORC Earth observation characters. What stayed with us afterward were the reactions from colleagues around the world. Quite a few professors commented, half joking and half serious, that sometimes they wish they could still spend more time being…
On 12.06.2026, surveying trainees from the state administration were guests at the Earth Observation Centre (EOC) of the German Aerospace Center (DLR). Remote sensing applications in the thematic domains of the ‘Georisks and Civil Security’ department…
When you think of a research internship in remote sensing, your mind probably jumps to lab screens, stacks of satellite imagery, and a lot of coffee. What you probably don’t picture is standing in the middle of Kruger National Park, watching elephants move through the bush while your laptop is…
Our Department Head Prof. Hannes Taubenböck was honored to welcome Prof. Alejandra Stehr from the Universidad de Concepción and Prof. Rodrigo Cienfuegos from the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile at the Earth Observation Center (EOC) of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in Oberpfaffenhofen from 9 to 11 June 2026. There has been a long-standing collaboration […]

We are pleased to congratulate Julia Rieder on the successful defense of her PhD thesis! Over the past years, Julia has investigated how European beech forests respond to severe drought events and which factors determine whether individual trees survive or die under increasing environmental stress. Her work combined detailed field observations with advanced Earth observation […]

At the Earth Observation Research Cluster (EORC) at the University of Würzburg, Dr. Martina Wilde combines geomorphology, natural hazard research, and remote sensing to better understand environmental risks and landscape dynamics. Her work focuses on landslides, slope stability, and the use of geospatial technologies to analyze how environmental change affects vulnerable regions. Research on Landslides […]
The availability of social media data and tools to (semi-)automatically analyse them has sparked research in various fields to assess human behaviour, opinions and attitudes on a global scale. In a new paper titled “Integrating Corpus Linguistics and NLP Methods to Explore Social Media Discourse from Edinburgh and London“, Twitter data posted during the COVID-19 […]

On 12.06.2026, surveying trainees from the state administration were guests at the Earth Observation Centre (EOC) of the German Aerospace Center (DLR). Remote sensing applications in the thematic domains of the ‘Georisks and Civil Security’ department (https://www.dlr.de/en/eoc/about-us/german-remote-sensing-data-center/geo-risks-and-civil-security) were presented to the guests from the fields of geodesy and geoinformatics. Prof Dr Hannes Taubenböck gave an […]

A while ago, we shared a lighthearted post about our EORC Earth observation characters. What stayed with us afterward were the reactions from colleagues around the world. Quite a few professors commented, half joking and half serious, that sometimes they wish they could still spend more time being the “field scientist” rather than the “committee […]
