Current Research
Geoinformatics for (spatial) planning, management and monitoring initiatives focusing on:
- Data modeling and data processing tailored towards planning tasks
- (Collaborative) geocommunication and geovisualisation
- User-centric application development
- Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI)
Geography and Geoinformatics, Human-nature interaction. Specific research interests: Usability & Taskability (regarding needs and demands of environmental and nature conservation, resource management).
