Predicting landslides and floodingLandslides and flooding tend to occur simultaneously in time. Jana Lim, a former Master student at ITC, thought it would be interesting to predict these two hazards since they cause a lot of damage to society. Her idea is to apply tools originally developed for speech recognition to do so. Jana Lim is the winner of the TGS Award 2023. In the video below Jana explains more about her upcoming PhD research.Read more
Spatial Finance, the new field that is now available for ITC StudentsGeo-information science must be financially feasible to be effective and generate impact. That is where Spatial Finance comes in. Adriano Barasal Morales, postdoctoral researcher of the Centre for Disaster Resilience of the ITC Faculty, is part of the team developing the new Spatial Finance materials for ITC’s education. Spatial Finance is currently a Choice Topic inside the "Food and Water Security in Iran" case in the MSc in Spatial Engineering. Spatial Finance will also be part of the Master’s in Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation curriculum. In this NRStory, Adriano shares with us the importance of spatial finance in the present and future of GIS and its process of integration into ITC’s education.Read more
