PostDoc Position Hyperspectral Land Cover Mapping
PostDoc Hyperspectral Land Cover Mapping
Applications are invited for an Experienced Researcher (ER) position, within the framework of the European Marie Curie Research and Training Network HYPER-I-NET. The HYPER-I-NET network comprises 15 scientific partners in 10 European countries.
Within Hyper-I-Net ESRs (Early Stage Researchers of PhDs) and ERs (Experienced Researchers or PostDocs) are working towards an integrated approach for imaging spectrometer data exploitation, including sensor design and applications. Recent advances in assessing hyperspectral data processing and information extraction show that there is room for improvements to current land cover mapping procedures by jointly exploiting spatial and spectral information.
Focus of this position is on implementing and optimizing a processing chain for land cover mapping using hyperspectral data. The work is embedded in the Hyper-I-Net team, and contributions to project deliverables as well as to the coaching of PhDs (organizing a summer school, supervision of PhD students, etc.) is expected.
Requirements:
Candidates applying for this position should have completed a PhD dissertation on remote sensing, geography, or physics with extensive use of remote sensing classification/mapping methods or similar expertise. We seek individuals having demonstrated their potential for performing multi-disciplinary research and the ambition to further develop remote sensing methods for use in imaging spectroscopy.
Candidates with good publication records and proven skills will be considered. The University of Pavia is an equal opportunity/equal access employer. Women are particularly encouraged to apply for this position.
Location:
The candidate will work at the Department of Electronics of the University of Pavia in Pavia, Italy.
