"The Master’s Programme Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation (M-GEO) is a two-year academic curriculum at MSc level, taught fully in English, dedicated to understanding the earth’s systems from a geographic and spatial perspective. The field of Geo-information Science and Earth Observation has, in recent years, witnessed fast scientific and technological developments. As a result, geographic information has become a vital asset to society and part of our daily life. The ubiquitous production and availability of spatial data require cloud computing and new technology to turn the increasing volume of ‘big data’ to good use. The growing range of global challenges, from climate change and resource depletion to environmental pollution and pandemic diseases, that our society and in particular the more vulnerable populations on our planet are facing, increases the demand for academic professionals who have the ability, attitudes and skills to design solutions that are sustainable, transdisciplinary and innovative with positive societal impacts. Our education focuses on addressing these global problems by means of advanced geo-information and earth observation applications."@en .

But for the solving of complex spatial-temporal problems in earth and environmental research often the handling of (very) large and complex data sets is required. This typically asks for special geoprocessing solutions.\nThis course teaches students how to plan and carry out their own programming or scripting project, to support the processing, visualization and analysis of large and complex data sets in their MSc research phase. During the course, students will work on their own geoprocessing challenge, in their own application field and using their own research data\n\nEmphasis is on scientific computing using the programming (and scripting) language Python. Depending on student interest, other modern programming languages may be considered as well. In a similar manner, tools for the design of Graphical User-Interfaces (GUI) will be considered, which will allow building interactive windows containing buttons, text boxes, graphs, maps etc.\n\nSpecial attention will be given to available statistical and scientific packages for mathematics, science and engineering, such as array processing, linear algebra, regression, optimization, classification, clustering and machine learning.\n\nThe course intends to support individual students in programming solutions that they need during their MSc research. Therefore, certain flexibility is offered to students when to start the course."@en . "Python Solutions"@en . "Python Solutions"@en . "Python Solu
