Teaching

I give some variations of this courses at ENSG, the French school of geomatic, as well as at conferences tutorials (JURSE2019, ISPRS Congress 2021), online (EURSODR-EduSERV 2019-2020), and as training for researchers (NIBIO Oslo in 2019, LaSTIG in 2021).

The courses requires a familiarity with Python.
