"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 .

"The course starts with a small set of lectures combined with a number of supervised practicals/tutorials. A number of papers on weather impact analysis will be introduced by staff for self-study. A case-study will be introduced as an individual project; with limited guidance, students will on a self-defined, real-world challenge, where weather data will be collected and analyzed related to an application field of their interest. The project is based on Challenge-based learning approach. Frequently feedback/intervision sessions and formative evaluations will be implemented to ensure students reflect and communicate on their steps in the individual learning process with their peers and experts."@en .

The weather has an impact on the earth surface, but also on everything that is on that surface: vegetation, soil, water availability, humans, etc. Many natural hazards have extreme weather conditions as a trigger, like droughts, floods, heat-waves, and rainfall-induced landslides. Also, agricultural production is dependent on weather conditions, as extreme weather events might cause damage to crops or land, and lead to less harvest. Similarly, the extent and magnitude of the urban heat island effects are largest under hot, stable weather conditions. When analyzing and visualising this weather information with data on the earth systems under study, one gets insight into the impact of weather and can act accordingly to prevent or mitigate disasters.\n\nFortunately, the weather is continuously monitored worldwide, by satellites and ground stations at minute, daily or monthly scales. Many meteorological datasets are freely accessible, being an enormously rich source for weather information. \n\nThis course provides knowledge on weather data sources and tools to analyze the interaction between the weather and earth surface processes in time and space. The focus will be on analysing meteorological datasets to extract information on extreme weather events. The challenge will be to link this climatic information to non-meteorological data to learn more on the impact weather has on earth systems, such as natural hazards, hydrology, vegetation, urban environments, etc."@en .
