Geo-IT für die Wasserwirtschaft

Geo-IT für die Wasserwirtschaft

Spatial Information Infrastructures unterstützen Monitoring, Planung und Management 

Kürzlich versammelten sich Studierende der Fachrichtungen Umweltingenieurwesen und Bauingenieurwesen der TU Braunschweig, um den Vortrag von Benedikt Gräler mit dem Titel „Geo-IT für die Wasserwirtschaft – wie Spatial Information Infrastructures Monitoring, Planung und Management unterstützen” zu hören. Im Rahmen des Wasserbauseminars gab Benedikt Gräler Einblicke in die Herausforderungen und Lösungen unterschiedlicher Projekte, die von Messnetzwerken über Modellierung und Planung bis hin zu Klimafolgenanpassung und Katastrophenmanagement reichten. Er betonte, wie wichtig der Raumbezug in der Wasserwirtschaft ist und wie Geo-IT-Lösungen dabei helfen, eine Vielzahl von Daten und Modellen interoperabel bereitzustellen.

The Weather Routing Tool – Documentation Online

The Weather Routing Tool – Documentation Online

Reducing energy consumption in maritime navigation

The Weather Routing Tool (WRT) is an open-source Python library developed by 52°North for calculating optimal maritime routes. Its development began under the MariData project (funded by BMWE) and is currently continuing as part of the EU TwinShip project. WRT’s primary objective is to minimize fuel consumption in the shipping industry by using environmental data to help route vessels. This data includes various meteorological parameters, such as wind and wave conditions, as well as water depth information.

Co-Designed Open-Source Solutions for CCA and DRM

Co-Designed Open-Source Solutions for CCA and DRM

EUROGI recently hosted the webinar “Co-designed Open Source Solutions for Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk Management.”

Benedikt Gräler illustrated how two Horizon Europe projects — I-CISK Human Centred Climate Services and DIRECTED Project — are developing open-source, co-designed tools to help communities across Europe anticipate and respond to the impacts of climate change. From integrating local and scientific knowledge to creating actionable environmental intelligence, the discussion offered valuable insights into how geospatial data and open innovation are driving resilience.
