The main aim of the remote sensing group is mineral exploration but the quantification of vegetation physical properties and surface processes is also envisaged. Expertise in hyperspectral data processing is explicitly recommended for the position but not exclusively.
The strength of the institute lies in the multidisciplinarity of our research activities. Therefore, the ability and the willingness of the candidates to work with colleagues from a large range of disciplines is indispensable. We invite young and flexible researchers keen to actively collaborate with other team members and familiar with the quantitative analysis of geospatial data to apply. The working languages of HIF are English and German. Candidates must be able to work effectively in English.
Tasks:
-Application of multi-source remote sensing methods for mineral exploration, the analysis of surface processes and vegetation change detection.
-Acquisition of and participation in third party funding projects, publications, scientific communications and report writing.
Requirements
-PhD in remote sensing or related field.
