Postdoctoral position (OpenGeoHub): integrated proximal and remote sensing of soil

Tomislav Hengl 
Application Deadline: 20th of September 2020
Possible start date: 15th of November 2020
Duration: 2+ years,
Job location: Agro Business Park 10, Wageningen, the Netherlands
Bruto monthly salary: The gross monthly salary starts at ? 2.720,- (with 
possible bonuses)

Fields: pedometrics, soil spectroscopy, remote sensing, predictive 
modeling, soil organic carbon, data science
Employer: OpenGeoHub foundation

OpenGeoHub foundation is looking for a Post-doctoral researcher in the 
field of proximal and remote soil sensing, with a proven experience of 
fitting soil-spectroscopy calibration models, harmonizing and managing 
laboratory soil measurements, estimating soil organic carbon stocks 
using combination of remote sensing and soil spectroscopy, and has 
experience in programming in R and/or Python. We especially welcome 
candidates with interest in developing and implementing novel modeling 
techniques that help bridge the gaps between field-based proximal 
sensing, and satellite-based remote sensing of soil. The candidate would 
work for OpenGeoHub on current and future international projects 
including the ?Soil Spectroscopy for global good? (global data sets; 
project lead by WHRC) and the H2020 project ?AgriCapture ? Developing 
EO-powered services to promote soil carbon sequestration through 
regenerative agriculture? (EU-wide data sets). The candidate would also 
actively contribute to the www.OpenLandMap.org data portal and similar 
global datasets produced and maintained by OpenGeoHub.
