Warum Geodaten Teamarbeit brauchen - und was uns in Winterthur antreibt.

Hinter jedem Digitalen Stadtplan und jeder komplexen Datenanalyse stehen Menschen. In der Fachstelle Geoinformation der Stadt Winterthur erlebe ich tagtäglich, dass fachliche Exzellenz und ein tiefes menschliches Vertrauen untrennbar zusammengehören.

#OpenData - #Geoinformation for Humanitarian Aid - New Global Satellite Dataset for Humanitarian Routing and Tracking Infrastructure Change - "A new global dataset released by the HeiGIT (Heidelberg Institute for Geoinformation Technology) makes it possible to distinguish between paved and unpaved roads worldwide with unprecedented consistency. Derived from high-resolution satellite imagery, the data enable more reliable routing, accessibility mapping, and tracking of infrastructure change over time, particularly in regions where on-the-ground information is scarce. [...] The dataset is openly available via the Humanitarian Data Exchange — the open data platform operated by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) — and will be updated annually." - HeiGIT (Heidelberg Institute for Geoinformation Technology) https://heigit.org/heigit-releases-global-satellite-dataset-for-humanitarian-routing-and-mapping-infrastructure-change/
