Einzelbaumerkennung mit offenen Daten der Bundesländer – Webinar-Aufzeichnung

Wie lassen sich offene Geodaten für Umwelt- und Stadtplanung nutzen? Wir zeigen, wie Einzelbäume flächendeckend erfasst werden können – mit Open Source Ansatz und einer Live-Demo. Hier gehts zum Video.
New project completed: Using thermal data to reduce energy loss

In many cities, buildings are already supplied with heating energy via decentralized district heating networks. The expansion of district heating is considered a key component of a sustainable energy and heating transition and for achieving climate protection targets. Waste heat – for example from combined heat and power plants or waste incineration plants – is […]
