UNIGIS Studierende des MSc Studiums kamen vom 17.-18. September in Salzburg zusammen, um ihre Masterarbeits-Themen zu präsentieren. Als Abschluss dieser Studientage stand ein gemeinsamer Besuch des Sattlerpanoramas in Salzburg am Programm. Das Sattler-Panorama ist ein 25,53 Meter langes und 4,86 Meter hohes Ölgemälde des Malers Johann Michael Sattler. Es zeigt das Panorama der Stadt Salzburg und ihres Umlandes im Jahr 1825, gesehen von der Festung Hohensalzburg aus.

Asif Akbari's Master Thesis, "Spatial and Modal Patterns of Traffic Law Enforcement in Barcelona: Insights from Open Government Data," explored the spatial, temporal, and modal patterns of traffic law enforcement in Barcelona from a geospatial perspective.

Road safety is influenced not only by infrastructure and traffic conditions, but also by how and where traffic regulations are enforced. Asif's research therefore focused on a question that is often less visible in road safety research: ‘Where, when, and across which vehicle and violation categories are traffic infringements enforced’?

Using Barcelona's open government traffic infringement data from the first quarter of 2024, Asif analysed more than 260,000 traffic sanction records. The study combined GIS and statistical methods - including Network Kernel Density Estimation (NKDE), the Getis-Ord Gi* statistic, and Monte Carlo analysis - to identify spatial hotspots, examine temporal patterns, and explore differences across vehicle types and violation categories.

Got curious? Then have a look at the thesis https://lnkd.in/dadRF4Qa and get in touch with Asif https://lnkd.in/dEGs6Uyt ! 👏 👏 👏

Time to Say Goodbye … and Hello!

With one tearing but one laughing eye, we say goodbye to our respected colleague Judith Grubinger-Preiner, who will leave the UNIGIS team in mid-August to pursue new endeavors as a high-school teacher. We are going to miss Judith and her warm and welcoming personality, and her tireless commitment to "her" UNIGIS students, whom she has taken care of for the last several years.

However, our laughing eye welcomes Dr. Christian Werner, who will take over Judith's role as tutor of the English-language UNIGIS program. As a member of the ZGIS mobility lab (), Christian will give us valuable support as a Master Thesis supervisor and in developing und updating our learning materials.

So, thank you, Judith - and good luck!
And welcome, Christian - nice to have you on board!

We warmly appreciate the dedicated contribution of Dr. Lorenz Wendt, remote sensing expert at the Z_GIS Department of Geoinformatics and Christian Doppler (CD) Laboratory for geospatial and EO-based humanitarian technologies (CDL GEOHUM), as a UNIGIS lecturer.
For five years, Lorenz was responsible for the Optional Module "Remote Sensing" as author and lecturer. In this module, Lorenz covered the complete remote sensing workflow, from data acquisition and processing to analysis and practical application.
He also lay the foundations for our recent Remote Sensing: Advanced module, which explores how cutting-edge remote sensing techniques transform Earth Observation data into meaningful insights.
During his time as a UNIGIS lecturer, more than 200 students chose Remote Sensing as their specialisation and benefited from Lorenz’s expertise. In addition, he supervised several master’s theses, supporting students in conducting high-quality research and applying remote sensing methods to real-world challenges.
We thank Lorenz for his outstanding commitment to UNIGIS, his dedication to student success, and his valuable contribution to advancing remote sensing education.
