EEBIOMASS Summer School

EEBIOMASS summer schools are aimed to engage and train Early Career scientists on different dimensions of biomass and Earth observation related topics! Target group of the Summer School were Early Careers from the fields of Remote Sensing, Forest Management and Earth System Sciences.

The Summer School Lives On – Now Online!

Our Summer School series has brought together students, early-career researchers, and experts from around the world for three inspiring in-person editions filled with lectures, discussions, and hands-on learning.

While a fourth edition is not currently planned, we are excited to announce that the legacy of the Summer School continues online.

The complete lecture series from our 2024 edition is now available on EO-College, providing free access to the high-quality educational content developed throughout the programme. Whether you attended one of the previous editions and would like to revisit your favourite sessions, or you are discovering the Summer School for the first time, the online lectures offer a valuable resource to learn at your own pace.

🎓 Explore the courses, revisit the lectures, and continue learning—anytime, anywhere.
