  2. Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien) • Founded in 1815 by emperor Franz II as “K. K. Polytechnisches Institut”, the first technical university in the contemporary German-speaking regions • 2500 staff • 150 full professors • ~17000 students ChristianDoppler(1803–1853)physicist(Doppler effect) JohannStrauss(1825–1899)composer Josef Strauss(1827–1870) composer Rudolf Steiner (1861–1925) philosopher (anthropo-sophy) Richard Zsigmondy (1865–1929) chemist, Nobel laureate Viktor Kaplan (1876–1934) engineer (Kaplan turbine) Milutin Milanković (1879–1958) geophysicist (Milankovich cycles) FritzLang (1890–1976) filmmaker ("Metropolis", "M") Franz Viehböck (1960–) astronaut

  3. Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien) • Faculty of Mathematics and Geoinformation • Geodesy and Geoinformation Group • Institute of Geodesy and Geophysics • Institute of Geoinformation and Cartography • Institute of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing • 2 professors: remote sensing and photogrammetry • 5 university assistants • 25 project scientists • 4 support staff • Students, contractors, etc.

  4. IPF Research Profiles • Basic competences • Geometric modelling in photogrammetry and laser scanning • Physical modelling and remote sensing applications • Current research focus • Airborne laser scanning (digital terrain modelling; 3D city and object models; biomass and vegetation mapping) • Radar remote sensing (soil moisture; wetlands; freeze/thaw mapping) • Beyond Science • Foster operational services to serve the common good • Cooperation with industry • Software development and service demonstration • Know-how transfer

  5. SAR ERS-1/2 SCAT Laser and Radar Techniques • Spaceborne Radar • Monitoring of dynamic, large-scale phenomena • Side-looking for image formation • Airborne Laser Scanning • Mapping of relatively static land surface objects • Scanning of laser pulses across the flight line

  6. Airborne Laser Scanning ALS derived surface and terrain model for the Leithagebirge, eastern Austria(Cooperation with M. Doneus, Instituts für Ur- und Frühgeschichte,Universität Wien)

  7. Airborne Laser Scanning

  8. Radar Remote Sensing from Satellites Mean surface soil moisture derived from ERS scatterometer data for 1991–2007
