Spatial Simulation @gi_forum2018

The call for papers for the Special Session on “Spatial Simulation” at next year’s GI_Forum Conference 3-6 July 2018 in Salzburg has just opened. The Special Session focuses on the advances in process-oriented geocomputational methods as well as their applications.We welcome your contribution on agent-based modelling, cellular automata or any other geocomputational simulation approach in all domains from A(griculture) to Z(oology).

The submission deadline for full papers is February 1, 2018.

Ski-lift speed and waiting time

Across Europe and the rest of the world, skiing enjoys great popularity. However, it is assumed that the number of ski areas that will remain climatically operable will decrease dramatically in the near future. Accordingly, overcrowding and longer waiting times at ski-lift stations are identified as an economic threat to skiing areas. In a study [...]

Meeting with PySD developer

Applications and tools for System Dynamics modelling such as Vensim, Stella or Powersim have only very limited spatial capabilities and functions. The PySD project seeks to integrate System Dynamics models in Python. This opens new avenues for Spatial System Dynamics modelling as geospatial modelling capabilities can be merged more easily with System Dynamics. On Friday, [...]

Effectiveness of Covid-19 social distancing

Our recently published research shows that most stringent social distancing does not produce the best outcomes in terms of curbing the number of infections and fatalities. This is particularly relevant in the case of distinct seasonal variation in transmission, when the basic reproduction of an infectious disease is high and when health care capabilities are [...]

Open Online-Workshop on Covid-19 Modelling

The Research Group on Spatial Simulation will participate in the Online-Workshop on “Modelling the spread and impact of the Coronavirus” which is organized by the Graz Schumpeter Center. The workshop takes place between 9th and 10th of December. The workshop is openly accessible! For more information, please visit GSC. [...]

UNIGIS Workshop for Archaeologists

This year’s UNIGIS workshop at the 25th Conference on Cultural Heritage and New Technologies took place online with about 20 highly motivated participants. Participants had the opportunity to get to know advanced methods of geospatial analysis by examining the potential irrigation function of a canal-shaped landform in Upper Austria. In order to investigate this hypothesis, [...]
