UPWr with some of the best diploma theses in space fields

23-12-2021

On December 20th in Cracow the second part of Earth Observation Forum devoted to the subject of satellite data used in public administration took place. During the conference results of the Competition for the Award of the President of Polish Space Agency POLSA for the best thesis in the field of space research were announced. From the Wroclaw University of Environmental and Life Sciences 6 theses had participated, which, according to statistics of the agency, allowed our University to take the first place in terms of the number of submitted works. The submitted thesis by our students were of a very high standard, as evidenced by the fact that four out of six sent applications made it to the final part of the competition.

A new geoinformation project in IGIG [OPUS NCN]

13-12-2021

The National Science Centre announced the results of the OPUS21 call. The project of our employee, Dr. Eng. Pawel Boguslawski, entitled ‘New Multidimensional Data Structure for Varioscale Spatial Model Representation’ was accepted for funding. Dr Boguslawski will work on the development of a new multidimensional data structure for the simultaneous representation of spatial objects in various levels of details. It will be possible to automatically generate intermediate levels with the required granularity, and perform analysis in a specific resolution and propagate the results to the remaining levels of representation.

Congratulations!

IGiG and SpaceOS is the newest member of the AGILE

The first successful integration of the optical and microwave observations onboard Galileo and GLONASS

22-10-2021

Scientists from the Institute of Geodesy and Geoinformatics of the Wroclaw University of Environmental and Life Sciences (UPWr) and Technical University of Munich (TUM) for the first time successfully conducted an integration of two space geodetic techniques, i.e., microwave – GNSS and optical – SLR, aiming at the geodetic datum realization in space, independently on the ground measurements.
