at the moment I'm pretty sure my board of choice will be a Zybo Z7, but I'm still not sure about which one of them. If a bigger FPGA is needed depends more on the kind of projects rather than the size itself, that's why I can't just simply extrapolate, how much logic I will probably need.
Could you please describe me somehow, for which kind of projects the PL of the Zynq-7010 could be too small and the greater Zynq-7020 would be recommended or needed? Or could you maybe give me some examples of projects, which wouldn't fit into a Zynq-7010?
Zynq 7010: 28K logic cells
Zynq 7020: 85K logic cells
What sort of projects I will do... I don't know it yet at all. To get into SoC/Zynq at all will keep me busy for a while. After this... something which takes advantage of parallelism would be nice. RT-image-processing, neuronal networks, tree spanning algorithms...
If I want to experiment around in different fields, will I most probably time by time get into situations, where the bigger Zynq would be of advantage, avoid problems or even allow an implementation at all. Or is the bigger Zynq-7020 more like of industrial size and a single, private hobby- or student-developer won't ever come close to fill out even the smaller Zynq-7010?

Hi,
