Lecture Big Geospatial Data - Summer Term 2020

Aim of this Lecture

By completing this module, students will be enabled to work with big datasets of spatial nature both in scientific environments using cluster computing architectures based on MPI as well as in scalable computing models such as cloud computing more tailored to business adoption.

Time Table

This conference runs in an inverted classroom manner due to Corona. That is, every week, a detailed list of resources including

  • lecture videos
  • papers
  • screencasts

and other media is published on https://www.martinwerner.de/online-lehre/bgd.

You will need a password for this page. If you did not get it via email, you might not be registered in myTUM or have some spam filter issues. Let me know by writing an email.

Then, students can attend an interactive walkthrough session as a video conference depending on the quality of video conferencing during semester. In addition, a chat will be used for asynchronous exchange. Every week, an open line hour will be held in this chat with options of breakout to video conferencing services. This is planned mainly during the lecture timeslot.

The timeslot is currently

Tuesday, 9:45 - 12:15, line opens about 9:30. Better be in the chat in parallel!

Lets make the best we can in these difficult times!
