The Department of Earth Observation Science (EOS) is engaged in education, research, and capacity building on earth observation, image analysis, and geo-health. The department develops and applies methods for the extraction of large-scale geo-information from, satellite, airborne and terrestrial sensors. The expertise of the department covers spatial statistics, image analysis, machine learning, deep learning, monitoring, and data integration. Geo-health relates the dynamics of diseases to the geo context. This is done by modeling the spread of diseases and their explanatory variables and includes understanding the emergence of diseases at various scales.

The vacancy is within the scope of the 'ASTRAIOS: Analysis of skills, training, research and innovation opportunities in space' project. The project is funded in the framework of the Horizon Europe Call HORIZON-CL4-2022-SPACE-01: Strategic Autonomy in Developing, Deploying and Using Global Space-based Infrastructures, Services, Applications and Data 2022. The overall objective of ASTRAIOS is to provide an exhaustive view and understanding of the current and future offer of Space curricula and courses in the EU-27, and characterize the demand from the European Space industry, leading to the identification of actionable ways forward toward a better alignment between the European space sector's curricula and qualification capabilities and the skills required by the future EU space sector to foster innovation and increase EU competitiveness
