SENSE at ESA Living Planet Symposium 2025

This week many of us at SENSE CDT are at the European Space Agency Living Planet Symposium 2025. SENSE CDT is turning heads at #LPS25! With over 30 PhD students hitting the stage and poster boards, they’re showing just how powerful satellite data and machine learning can be when it comes to tackling global challenges.

Expect everything from tracking Arctic heatwaves in 3D, to decoding the legacy of conflict on land use, to using Earth Observation for disaster response, biodiversity, agriculture, and beyond. You’ll also find the SENSE team leading education efforts through SatSchool, and connecting with the next generation at a dedicated Early Career Networking Event with ESA.

It’s a vibrant, multidisciplinary presence that reflects what SENSE does best—preparing tomorrow’s Earth Observation leaders to shape a smarter, more resilient planet. 🌍✨

Keep an eye on our socials to see what our excellent students and alumni are up to!
