My home is my study site 😍. This is one of our new @3dgeohd.bsky.social research sites and outdoor labs located in my home region #Vorarlberg in #Austria. A perfect geographic site to develop the next generation of AI-based 3D/4D observation and monitoring technology. #Lünsersee #Schesaplana

🧊 Linking small- and large-scale Digital Twins: A concept 📅 Poster | Thursday, 01 May, 10:45–12:30 (CEST), Hall X5, X5.151 📰 Abstract: meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/EGU25-... ✍ Authors: Aiden Durrant, Me, @bernhardhofle.bsky.social, @hannahwe.bsky.social, @tabernig.bsky.social

I'm heading to Vienna for #EGU25 next week 😍 Don't wanna brag, but I finished my poster already two weeks ago 😁 I'm looking forward to meeting lots of great colleagues and hope some of you will stop by my poster! 🤗

Super spannendes Event!

Here is a grape seed sized nugget of a weevil for #WeevilWednesday. This tiny friend was found on the underside of a large banana leaf. #inverts (Subfamily Conoderinae) Tatama National Park Colombia

Amazing pictures taken last week in the ice cave below the front of #Morteratsch Glacier by glaciologist Lander Van Tricht (@vaw-glaciology.bsky.social) 🤩 Huge retreat of this glacier over the last years has led to formation and expansion of this cave 📈❄️ Beware, it could collapse at any moment! 🚫

My friend is totally enthusiastic about the course "Klimaphysik meets Bildung für nachhaltige Entwicklung"! I quote: ‘I didn't realise that such cool things were possible with Moodle’. 💪 @nicoleaeschbach.bsky.social @werneraeschbach.bsky.social

Super exciting research project of our institute, together with partners from University of Innsbruck and from the Austrian Academy of Sciences uni-heidelberg.de/ahk-4d Not sure what's the best part, the #fieldwork, the #pointclouds or the #changeanalysis methods 🤩

Really cool opportunity yesterday! 😎 As we are both in the early stages of our PhDs, preparing the presentation, answering questions and receiving feedback was a great help. We also got a lot of inspiration from the other participants and loved the opportunity to exchange with them. 🤝🙌

Now the published final version of our brand new article "Integrating multi-user digitising actions for mapping gully outlines using a combined approach of Kalman filtering and machine learning" can be found here: doi.org/10.1016/j.op...

📰 Cool study on mapping gully outlines in Namibia using volunteered geographic information (VGI), Kalman filtering to find a smoothed solution and machine learning to identify the key predictors for digitising quality ❕ Important contribution to soil erosion monitoring in inaccessible areas

Amazing summer school! I am still grateful that I was able to take part in 2022 😊 I learned a lot, met great people and enjoyed the mountains! ⛰️🤩 10/10 would recommend!
