The aim of this PhD project is to develop a cloud based artificial neural
network for processing large remotely sensed data sets in order to generate
essential biodiversity variables (as defined by Pereira et al. (2013) and
Skidmore et al. (2015)). The PhD candidate, in combination with supervisors
and programming support, will develop innovative artificial intelligence
techniques for estimating biodiversity variables using massive cloud based
data sets of satellite remotely sensed, in situ and ancillary data. Potential
candidate biodiversity variables to be retrieved from satellite remote sensing
include pertinent indicators of ecosystem function, ecosystem structure and
species traits. The research will result in a PhD thesis.
