TUM–NAU SmartAg Seminar 2025
🛰️ TUM–NAU Smart Agriculture Seminar 🌱
We are pleased to announce an international seminar jointly organized by the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and Nanjing Agricultural University (NAU) on the topic:
Remote Sensing and Data-Driven Methods for Smart Agriculture 🚁🛰️
📅 Date: June 27, 2025
📍 Location: Online & In-person (TUM Dürnast Research Station)
🎯 Focus Topics:
- UAV- and satellite-based monitoring of crop traits
- Machine learning for agricultural decision-making
- Modeling plant-soil interactions for precision farming
This event fosters scientific exchange on the integration of remote sensing technologies and modeling tools to advance crop and soil monitoring, and smart and sustainable farming practices 🚜. Researchers, students, and professionals from both institutions will share their latest work and explore new collaborations.
Stay tuned for more updates and program details!
Organizers: Prof. Qiang Cao, Prof. Kang Yu
