  • STAP19 Workshop and Compact Course Concluded

    From 01-04 April 2019, the 3DGeo and FCGL research groups organized STAP19, a compact course and workshop on Spatial and Temporal Analysis of Geographic Phenomena at the Interdisciplinary Center for Scientific Computing (IWR, Heidelberg University). In a mix of lectures, invited talks and hands-on sessions, the participants learned about processing and analysis of 3D geodata,…

  • Live from the Ötztal Alps (#5): Exploring high-mountain 3D GIScience

    On our last day in the Ötztal Alps, we had an exciting excursion from Obergurgl to Ramolhaus on 3006 m a.s.l. On our way up we could directly explore glacial history by passing the historical extents and related moraines of the retreating Gurgler glacier. The students also learned about geoarcheology and settlement history in the…

  • 3D geodata acquisition in the Siberian Arctic

    In September 2017, the 3D Spatial Data Processing Group (3DGeo) joined the German-Russian expedition of the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) for Polar and Marine Research to the Arctic research station Samoylov (N 72°22’, E 126°29’) in the central Lena Delta. Under the lead of Julia Boike, the research team maintained and expanded long-term monitoring stations…

  • ArchEyeAutomatic summer school 2017

    From 26 to 28 July, the 3D spatial data processing group contributed to the “ArchEyeAutomatic summer school 2017: Cameras, Drones, and Laser scanning. Modern ways to document ancient objects”. With a focus on documenting and analyzing archaeological sites and objects, the summer school introduced around 40 participants to various methods of close-range remote sensing at…

  • 3D data acquisition in the Ötztal Alps – Exploring 3D GIScience on the “Monster of Rock”

    As part of the practical field training “3D Geodatenerfassung im Hochgebirge (Ötztal), 31 July – 06 August”, the rock glacier “Äußeres Hochebenenkar” (42 ha), located in the Ötztal Alps in an elevation of 2,630-2,800 m a.s.l., was explored  by 16 students under the direction of Bernhard Höfle, Stefan Hecht and Martin Hämmerle. With the help…
