Summer School

Innsbruck Summer School of Alpine Research 2024:

The 5th edition of the summer school will take place 22-28 Sept 2024, once again in Obergurgl in the beautiful Ötztal valley in Tyrol, Austria. We build on the success of previous times, providing participants with innovative practical and methodological skills to characterize mountainous terrain using close- and near-range remote sensing techniques.

Theoretical lectures will be complemented by fieldwork assignments and hands-on data processing sessions using different novel software. The assignments will be performed in groups of about 5 participants and focusing on mountain research and related sensor and data processing techniques.

A variety of sensor systems will be available for data acquisition in the high mountain surroundings of the summer school venue, including different terrestrial laser scanners, drones, low cost sensing systems and spectral cameras.

Personal information

Profile

From 2011 to 2016, Daniel Czerwonka-Schröder studied surveying and geoinformatics at Mainz University of Applied Sciences, with a focus on engineering geodesy. In 2016, he already finished his master's thesis at DMT GmbH & Co. KG and has been employed there until the end of 2023. He was responsible for the project management of international monitoring projects in which GNSS or LIDAR technologies were used. The focus of the projects was mainly in the mining and infrastructure sector. Furthermore, he was responsible for the technical implementation in various R&D projects in which automated monitoring solutions were further developed. In the course of this work, he focused on the topic of permanent laser scanning and completed his doctorate at the TU Freiberg in 2023 under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Jörg Benndorf.

His work has been presented at national and international conferences with both a strong scientific and practical focus. He is also the author of relevant conference papers and co-author of several peer-reviewed journal publications.

His expertise in the field of engineering geodetic monitoring and the automation of monitoring processes is appreciated in respective working groups, so that he was a member of DVW Working Group 4 (Engineering Geodesy) from 2018 to 2022 and is currently a member of DVW Working Group 8 (Mobile and Autonomous Sensor Systems).
