HeiGIT is participating in this year’s ICUC12 – 12th International Conference on Urban Climate, which is taking place from 7 to 11 July in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. HeiGIT will be presenting in the session “Recent advancements in monitoring and modelling urban greenhouse gas emissions”.
This Mapathon is organized in cooperation with Doctors Without Borders and is part of the Missing Maps project. The project uses the open-source platform OpenStreetMap to map areas lacking geographical data for humanitarian aid.
At the end of March, geoEpi’s participation in the 2023 CGA Conference “From Geospatial Research to Health Solutions” highlighted this invaluable research overlap and presented promising avenues for future collaboration.
Der Klimawandel, Grenz- und Wasserkonflikte stellen enorme Herausforderungen für die aktuelle und kommenden Generationen dar. In all diesen Bereichen und darüber hinaus bietet die Geographie einmalige Chancen, zielgerichtet Lösungen zu erarbeiten.
Within the recently completed project SocialMedia2Traffic, we have developed a system to model traffic speed of urban roads depending on the time of day.
Dr. Carolin Klonner (GIScience Research Group) and Melanie Eckle-Elze (HeiGIT) will be supporting the Urban Context Unit of German Red Cross (GRC) in the “Data and Digitalisation in Urban Humanitarian Action” session.
