What they do

The AUA Remote Sensing Unit develops methodologies and analytical tools for processing satellite imagery and geospatial data in agricultural and environmental contexts. Their research focuses on crop monitoring, soil analysis, land cover classification, and the detection of environmental changes — providing public authorities and land managers with the spatial intelligence needed for evidence-based decisions.

The Unit also participates in EU-funded research projects related to precision agriculture, climate adaptation, and environmental monitoring, contributing scientific expertise and access to proprietary geospatial datasets. Their interdisciplinary position — bridging agronomic science and spatial technology — makes them a distinctive partner for projects combining environmental monitoring, smart farming, and land management innovation.
