Appreciate the hospitality of the University of Zurich Remote Sensing Labs for hosting my short visit to the lab and organizing the BioScale community workshop. Connected with great people and got the best possible souvenir: a catalog of beautiful remote sensing images! 🛰️🌍

On my way home from the first #biomonweek2026 conference in Montpellier 🇫🇷 I presented some of our work on automatic invertebrate ID and biomass estimation w/ computer vision 🐝 An inspiring week together with colleagues across methods, spanning sea, air and land! Looking forward to Turku 2028 🇫🇮

Attended the annual Winter Satellite Workshop last week. Got to chair the ”AI for earth observation” session, with great presentations ranging from disaster relief to agricultural monitoring. Also presented some results on mapping peatland habitats in the SuoKauko project!

We were happy to host visitors from ETH Zürich this week for a workshop on the next steps of the Riverine Organism Drift Imager (RODI). Exciting presentations, discussions and plans for future collaboration!

Once in a while you have to see how the data generating process looks like. Reality has a surprising amount of detail.

I’ve spent this spring with marine video analysis and now diving deeper at #GES4SEAS @azti.bsky.social #SummerSchool in beautiful San Sebastián 🌊 Excited to learn from experts and discuss all the possibilities in this field.

Last week I attended #EUSIPCO24 in Lyon, presenting in the ”Signal analysis for biodiversity” special session. Our work on DNA-guided OOD detection here: arxiv.org/abs/2406.18999. Learned a lot and met great people!
