Official opening of #agit2026 is on. Always good to connect to the academic, industry, and gov geo crowd #gischat #salzburg

Looking forward to digitally 'shaping geospatial futures' at #agit2026 agit.at/en/ - and to explore the real world #Salzburg on the days before and after the conference 😅

Always nice to 'make the cover' of our university homepage, highlighting international #Geoinformatics programs >https://www.plus.ac.at/news/spezialisierung-und-praxisnaehe-geoinformatik-studium-am-puls-der-zeit/

Just finished an intensive workshop week with the Kyrgyz State Medical Academy, exploring the potential of tools like cacgeoportal.com for learning about national level disease monitoring ('PDmon' #EPU project)

Concluding a workshop introducing an online geoportal in front of good old tangible hardcopy at nuu.uz/en/ >https://www.cacgeoportal.com/

Welcome, friends and colleagues to #GISCA! www.aca-giscience.org/pages/gisca2...

#PLATIAL'26 - May 29 deadline is closing in >https://platial26.platialscience.net/

The journal 'Technology Analysis & Strategic Management' is requesting a fax number in my profile. Some in-house strategic technology management needed?

serious wayback (40 years ...)

Sorry to see Austria's one and only #mapshop closing for good ...

Views from below, and from above ...

Spatial policy and planning requires data and knowledge = 'Territorial Evidence': the ESPON portal is a great example of cross-border homogenization of geospatial data >https://gis-portal.espon.eu/arcgis/apps/sites/#/espon-hub

Austrian 'Waldatlas' (forest atlas / portal). Great initiative launched today - waldatlas.at

Mappy challenge for the season ...

Great talk by @hanny-bal.bsky.social from @ituaustria.bsky.social in our #SelectedTopicsinGeoinformatics lecture series on 'Towards Spatially Explicit and Multimodal GeoAI in Social Sensing'

💥New call: Erasmus Mundus “Copernicus Master in Digital Earth”! Scholarship applications are welcome from international as well as European candidates with a strong geospatial background. Deadline Jan 18, details www.master-cde.eu

#LifeLongLearning: focusing on capacity building through flexible formats like distance and blended learning at UN GeoNow Deqing >https://ggim.un.org/meetings/2025/UN_GeoNow/

Speaks well for next gen Digital Geographers when a Sunday morning talk has to be streamed across multiple classrooms. Kudos to Nanjing Normal University School of Geography!

Morning delight - a rare southerly departure from #Salzburg (SZG, LOWS)

Visiting an alpine ice cave - the mass of ice just a few years ago was level with the top of the spiral staircase. Will be gone altogether soon, even though the oldest layers are dated approx. 3000 years BP

🗺️ No surprise, but sure a delight to inspect this wall map in the office of the head of Geography at the Uzbek National University :-)

Unique teaching globe at the National University of Uzbekistan - soon next to a same size virtual globe display

#10_years_after: few #EU_Tempus projects have been able to sustain outcomes in the long run. Not only did #GE-UZ successfully implement an MSc in Geoinformatics (also) at the National University of Uzbekistan, but top students now are offered a double degree option with the University of Salzburg 🎓

Always nice to see when papers reach a broader audience and meet current needs - www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Young #GIScientist award >https://www.rundertischgis.de/nachwuchsfoerderung/foerderpreis/ Deadline Nov 15

Honorary professorships come with fewer obligations. So, that's a win! Thanks, Osh Technological University!

simple counter-measure against electronic disturbances while driving in Central Asia. Following the pro-forma instructions seems not overly popular ;-/

MSc #Geoinformatics @unisalzburg.bsky.social - recognized with another #DoubleDegree program with the National University of Uzbekistan - looking forward to excellent and ambitious students!
