Recap of the Open Day Photogrammetry 2026
Last week, we had the opportunity to gain fascinating insights into the technology of aerial imaging at this year’s Open Day Photogrammetry at Dortmund Airport – including a close-up look at the specially equipped aircraft regularly used for aerial surveys. As a company that uses aerial imagery as a data foundation, we hosted a workshop […]
Revealing Overlooked Potential, Rethinking Parking Lots – Webinar Recording
Large-scale parking lots in cities are often overlooked – yet they offer tremendous potential for sustainable urban development, land use, and climate adaptation. In our webinar, we showed how parking areas can be systematically recorded, assessed, and documented – based on open geodata and with the help of open-source software. Thank you all for attending! […]
Back from the 2025 ESA Living Planet Symposium: Three Key Trends for Earth Observation
Last week, Vienna became the center of the Earth Observation (EO) world during the ESA Living Planet Symposium 2025, and we at mundialis were proud to be there, contributing and learning alongside global EO leaders. Here are our top three takeaways from the event and how they connect to our daily mission: Copernicus is expanding, […]
GIM International presents: Our Contribution to Climate Adaptation in Cities
We are pleased that our work has been featured in a recent article by our colleague Markus Metz. The article highlights the growing importance of open-source tools for enhancing climate adaptation — with a focus on our GRASS GIS module r.sim.water. The article explains how climate change is intensifying extreme rainfall events, making cities increasingly vulnerable […]
