"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 .

"Field methods play an important role in geological remote sensing studies for validation of remote sensing interpretations and characterization of rocks and geological environments.\n\nThis course introduces students to state-of-the-art methods for field validation and characterization of rock and outcrop. Methods include the acquisition of measurements of mineralogical and chemical rock composition and physical rock properties. Acquisition of field data is practiced with a variety of field instruments, including reflectance and gamma-ray spectrometers and portable XRF.\n\nThe preparation and execution of a field campaign is also practiced in this course. A remote sensing study is performed prior to field work and forms the basis for the preparation of detailed field data acquisition plans. Data collection using various sampling strategies and different instruments will be exercised in the field and includes assessment of data quality. Results of the field campaign are analysed, interpreted and integrated with the results of desk studies. Additional measurements may be performed in the ITC geoscience laboratory."@en .
