ReSENSE – First Training Activity ReSENSE October 15, 2024 12:14 pm On October 10, 2024, the first workshop of the ReSENSE ERASMUS+ project took place. The workshop, titled GEE/QGIS for UAV Multispectral Image Post-Processing, was held under the Topis of Image Processing. During the session, members of the ERATOSTHENES Centre of Excellence, Ms. Maria Prodromou and Ms. Eleni Loulli, provided valuable insights into the use of Google Earth Engine and QGIS, both open-source software tools. They conducted a step-by-step workshop demonstrating how to use these tools for processing multispectral UAV images, focusing on spectral index calculations and statistical analysis. The workshop was attended by members of the Cyprus Agricultural Research Institute and the Ministry of Agriculture. If you’re interested in learning more about Remote Sensing, and GIS don’t hesitate to join our future workshops!   Latest news Another memorable year with Robotex Cyprus! 06 Jul 2026 News Co-Design the SOIL-XR Learning Platform in Italy 26 Jun 2026 Projects Co-Design the SOIL-XR Learning Platform in Cyprus 26 Jun 2026 Projects Take the SOIL-XR Survey! 26 Jun 2026 Projects The SOIL-XR project is officially underway! 26 Jun 2026 Projects Popular news Another memorable year with Robotex Cyprus! 06 Jul 2026 News Co-Design the SOIL-XR Learning Platform in Cyprus 26 Jun 2026 Projects Co-Design the SOIL-XR Learning Platform in Italy 26 Jun 2026 Projects The SOIL-XR project is officially underway! 26 Jun 2026 Projects Take the SOIL-XR Survey! 26 Jun 2026 Projects

DIGIFABS – First Project Bulletin DIGIFABS September 16, 2024 08:39 am The DIGIFABS consortium is proud to announce the launch of its first project bulletin, marking the start of a bi-annual digital series designed to keep stakeholders informed about the project’s activities and progress. The inaugural issue introduces DIGIFABS, its objectives, and the critical needs it seeks to address. It also includes a report from the first consortium meeting and an update on initial research. Each partner’s role will be highlighted throughout the project, with Preneurz responsible for compiling the bulletins and Momentum overseeing the design and distribution. The bulletin will reach its target audience of educators and SMEs in the food and beverage sector through distribution by each consortium partner to their networks. Find the Bulletin here: https://digifabs.eu/download/613/?tmstv=1721307197 At the core of DIGIFABS is the Project Management Group (PMG), a key decision-making body led by Dominik Lappenküpper of FH Munster, consisting of representatives from all consortium partners. The PMG meets monthly to track progress, address challenges, and plan upcoming activities. Their work has been critical in driving timely reporting, collaborative problem-solving, and ensuring deliverables are met on schedule and within budget. In the project’s early stages, the PMG has overseen the development of key strategy documents, the establishment of the DIGIFABS brand identity, and the creation of branded templates. The group has also successfully launched the project website, social media channels, and an extensive literature review, alongside building a stakeholder database. Looking ahead, the PMG is preparing to conduct field-based research with key target groups of educators and SMEs, and encourages stakeholders to subscribe to the bi-annual bulletin to stay informed about the project’s future developments.
