The second AGILE PhD-School was as successful and interesting as the first event. Supported by AGILE grants and organized by Hardy Pundt (University of Applied Sciences Harz, Germany), Lars Bernard and Stephan Mäs (both Technical University of Dresden, Germany) the PhD-School took place on Sept. 30 - Oct. 2nd 2013 in Frauenwörth, Lake Chiemsee, Germany. The Benedictine abbey of Frauenwörth provided excellent conditions for undisturbed and intensive work on the scientifically challenging themes.
The twelve participants came from AGILE labs in Austria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Israel, Portugal, Switzerland and United Kingdom, as well as from the University of Tokyo, Japan. The discussed PhD topics covered a wide spectrum of scientific fields with respect to Geoinformatics.
Thomas Blaschke (University of Salzburg, Austria) attended as a senior researcher and gave an inspiring presentation on how to successfully organize a PhD. This year’s best presentation grant went to Stefano Grassi from ETH Zurich for his contribution on “Development of an integrated spatial optimization model for renewable energy planning”.
