Once again it was cold and gray as two 52°North teams hit the race track on Saturday for the 12th TUJA Firmenlauf ! Both teams were happy with their great results for 5 kms. Team 1 ranked 14th in the men’s division and Team 2 came in 6th in the women’s! Congrats!!!
52°North @ Schloß Eringerfeld
Last month, 52°North staff visited the Schloß Eringerfeld for our yearly retreat. We wracked our brains from thursday through saturday, targeting 52°North road maps and aligning common goals and strategies for 2013. We braved the cold and snow to discover hidden archery talents and topped off the event with a medieval banquet in the castle dungeon! All in all it was a very informative, productive and constructive event.
A new beginning
This is my first blog in a long time. It will be the first in a potentially long series and the subject will be quite different from that of my series of blogs in 2011/2012. In 2011/2012 I mostly wrote about functionality in ILWIS, i.e. the development of the new map window and all the visualization stuff that spawned from it. I probably will still write about that (work never stops), but my main focus will now shift to programming – programming for ILWIS NG (or ILWIS-Objects as people suggested to me).
In the first blog series, I tried to explain what changed in the 3.8 version and why it was so fantastic (!?). I consider that done now. Sure, new things will still be included in 3.8 and old things will be improved/resurrected or whatever, however, it is unlikely that you will see such sweeping changes as the 3.8 introduced. Since 3.8.3 is now more or less finished and a big reference document about the map window has been written, it is time to shift direction.
Software developer position available @ ITC
ITC is a partner in the European Marie Curie Initial Training Network “CHANGES”. The CHANGES network will develop an advanced understanding of how global changes (related to environmental and climate change as well as socio-economical change) will affect the temporal and spatial patterns of hydro-meteorological hazards and associated risks in Europe; how these changes can be assessed, modelled, and incorporated in sustainable risk management strategies, focusing on spatial planning, emergency preparedness and risk communication.
One of the main components of the project is the development of a Web-based Spatial Decision support System to analyze the effect of risk reduction planning alternatives on reducing the risk now and in the future, and support decision makers in selecting the best alternatives. ITC is responsible for the development of the data analysis modules within the SDSS.
