Since its founding in 2020, the TUM Precision Agriculture Lab has been committed to empower smart farming research, education, and practice.


TUM alumnus Prof. Christian Bredemeier (UFRGS, Brazil) returned to Weihenstephan on 13 May 2026 to give a guest lecture — “Research in precision and digital agriculture in the context of the Brazilian agribusiness” — followed by a visit to the Precision Agriculture Lab at Dürnast.

Our TUM Precision Agriculture Lab contributed three talks to the “Hyperspectral remote sensing and AI in Agriculture” workshop at the University of Luxembourg workshop (4–5 Feb 2026), covering trait-based crop monitoring, UAV SIF for NUE, and uncertainty from atmospheric correction.

Our lab joined the PHENET workshop at INRAE Montpellier to exchange ideas on phenotyping infrastructure, standards, and AI-ready data pipelines for scalable crop monitoring.

We are delighted to announce the successful doctoral defense of David Gackstetter, who completed his dissertation on spatial generalization in satellite image time series classification through transfer learning and data harmonization.
