[Partner Challenge] Neural Earth Fields -- Benchmark & Hackathon
[Partner Challenge] Neural Earth Fields -- Benchmark & Hackathon
We are looking for early-career researchers — Master's students and PhD candidates at any stage — with strong expertise in either geospatial science or machine learning/AI.
Benchmark & Hackathon Overview
Neural Earth Fields brings together early-career researchers from geodesy, geography, geoinformation, Earth observation, machine learning, computer science, mathematics, physics, and related fields.
Application deadline: 16 October 2026. Selected participants will be notified by 30 October 2026.
During this 24-hour hackathon, interdisciplinary teams will develop compact neural models that represent diverse Earth data as continuous, queryable functions.
The event takes place from 7 to 8 December 2026 at the IMPULSE House, University of Bonn. Selected participants will be matched into complementary Geo + AI teams.
