I am Associate Professor for Geoinformatics and Ecology at the Depatment of Geoinformatics – Z_GIS. I am Director of Studies of the UNIGIS MSc distance learning programme for GIScience & Systems and I lead the Spatial Simulation research group. My research interest is spatially-explicit simulation modelling of complex, ecological systems. My aim is to advance spatial simulation modelling methods, as well as to use these models to gain a better understanding of the behaviour of animals and the functioning of ecological systems.(…More…)

I am Director of Studies of the UNIGIS MSc distance learning program for GIScience & Systems in German language. My research focuses on the further development of simulation methodology with an aim to extend its application beyond traditional boundaries. Moreover, I am particularly interested in analyzing the counterintuitive behavior of complex systems.
In my professional career as researcher and lecturer, I could gain methodological expertise in diverse fields such as simulation modeling, systems analysis and statistics.

My interests in the Geoinformatics field are related to transport modelling, using approaches from the Spatial Simulation domain. One example can be agent-based modelling of transport traffic simulation with its ability to emerge new patterns from behavior and individual choices of moving objects. In addition I am very enthusiastic about the development of web map applications with interesting contexts from social media and crowd-sourced data.
