Teaching
ZFL contributes to teaching geomatics at the Department of Geography of the University of Bonn. Besides the Remote Sensing Research Group (RSRG), it collaborates with the Center for Development Research (ZEF) of the University of Bonn and regularly offers applied GIS and Remote Sensing courses to its PhD students (e.g., a yearly introductory course to Remote Sensing and GIS).
Training and teaching are also part of different ZFL capacity building focused projects, which results in the conduction of virtual and in-person training sessions and development of training materials, often in collaboration with other partners, including international institutions like UN.

Umweltsysteme im Wandel und Wasser im Globalen Wandel - Applications with Earth Observation
In Zeiten rasanter Umweltveränderungen und globaler Herausforderungen gewinnt die Fernerkundung zunehmend an Bedeutung und bietet innovative Möglichkeiten bestimmte Aspekte des globalen Wandels zu analysieren, zu verstehen und effektive Maßnahmen zu entwickeln. Das Seminar „Umweltsysteme im Wandel und Wasser im Globalen Wandel“ richtet sich an Studierende, die die aktuellen Methoden und Anwendungen der Fernerkundung kennenlernen und vertiefen möchten.
