Motivation
To cope with the outstanding socio-economic and
environmental issues of the future such as climate,
energy, transportation and demographics, geoinformation, i.e. information with a spatial reference,
are essential. Geo-information plays a major role in
many aspects of everyday life of citizens.
The capability of GIS has been extended to include
modelling and visualisation of terrain features in order
that decision makers will be able not only to see the
current state of the resources that they managed but
also see the impacts of their decisions and the future
Goal of the Summer School & Conference
The summer school and conference shall introduce
recent developments in GIS for sustainable
development and integration, both in theory and
practice. The summer school shall provide a
foundation for further studies and implementation
activities in sustainable development, exchange
knowledge, and enhance cooperation in education and
scientific research between German and Vietnamese
partners.
Themes of the Summer School & Conference
Geographic Information Systems (GIS): Introduction,
Technology, Analysis methods, recent developments
- Spatial databases: Focus on spatial organization
and structuring of geo-information, hands on
PostgreSQL
- UAVs, 3D
- Spatial Data Infrastructures, Standardisation and
Servicens (ISO and OGC)
- GIS and Internet technologies, Web-GIS
- GIS applications: resources management, disaster
management, regional planning, public health,
