3rd GESIS Workshop on Earth Observation Data in the Social Sciences - November 26-28, 2025
by Abel, Dennis 08 Jul '25

08 Jul '25

Dear colleagues, We invite paper submissions to a three-day workshop on Earth Observation Data in the Social Sciences. We invite both methodological contributions and substantial papers from research at the interface of social and Earth system science, as well as work from either discipline that advances understanding or offers new potential for the other. The workshop will take place in person at GESIS - Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences in Cologne, Germany, from November 26 to 28. We plan to have an in-depth and rich discussion of up to fifteen papers and welcome our keynote lecturers, Prof. Dr. Monika Kuffer from the University of Twente and Dr. Ana Andries from the University of Surrey. Article abstracts (max. 500 words) should be send to dennis.abel(a)gesis.org<mailto:dennis.abel@gesis.org> by August 6. Please see the attached file for the full call for abstracts. Our keynote speakers Prof. Dr. Monika Kuffer Monika Kuffer<https://people.utwente.nl/m.kuffer> is a Full Professor at the Faculty of Behavioural, Management and Social Sciences and the Faculty of Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation at the University of Twente. Her research focuses on sustainable development (SDGs), particularly poverty (deprivation), living quality, and economic development in urban/rural environments using remote sensing, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and AI-based methods. Her current projects include IDEAtlas<https://ideatlas.eu/> and SPACE4ALL<https://www.itc.nl/space4all/>. Among other positions, she is the Dutch representative of the European Association of Remote Sensing Laboratories (EARSeL). Dr. Ana Andries Ana Andries<https://www.surrey.ac.uk/people/ana-andries> is a Lecturer in GIS and Remote Sensing with applications in sustainability assessment at the University of Surrey. Her expertise spans environmental impact assessment, environmental auditing, spatial analysis, and sustainable development. She has worked on multiple projects exploring EO technologies for tackling environmental and socio-economic challenges, leading the Space4Sustainability<https://www.surrey.ac.uk/institute-sustainability/research/space-4-sustaina…> initiative at the University of Surrey. Before her academic role, she gained industrial experience as a GIS Quality Control specialist at the Rural Payment Agency (RPA) under the UK Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA).
