Der Arbeitskreis Visualisierung dient zum Wissensaustausch und zur Abstimmung einer gemeinsamen Zielausrichtung im Bereich VR und Visualisierung am LRZ. Innerhalb dieses Arbeitskreises gibt es zwei verschiedene Veranstaltungtypen. Zum einen eine Ringvorlesung, mit Vorträgen aus Industrie und Forschung sowie auch Diskussionrunden, um Anwenderwünsche abzuklären und den Bedarf an Diensten seitens des LRZ abzustimmen. Vorträge sowie Diskussionsrunden finden in unregelmässigen Abständen mehrfach im Jahr statt. Falls Sie Interesse am AK-Visualisierung haben treten Sie unserer Mailing-Liste bei und registrieren Sie sich.
Termine:

Title: Map Generation – From the sensor to imagery
Kurzfassung: Maps are ubiquitous in our daily lives ranging from navigation and routing to trip planning and virtual tours in the internet. Although navigation maps is common nowadays, the generation requires lots of world class research efforts. This talk will give a tour from the very beginning of the processing chain – the digital aerial camera – to the very end – the map product known as Bing Maps. Different to consumer cameras, the developed aerial sensor captures images with a resolution of 260 MPix per shot every 2 seconds. Algorithms has been developed by our research team which provide an interactive visualization of large amount of image data as well as efficient parallel processing to the final product. Techniques known from Microsoft’s PhotoSynth product, but also world class dense matching and ortho generation methods are part of the presented pipeline.
Kurzbiographie: Bernhard Reitinger received his master degree from the Johannes Kepler University in Linz. In 2005, he finished his PhD at the Technical University in Graz where he was focused on medical visualization within virtual reality environments. After he was working as a post-doc researcher in Graz in the context of augmented reality and computer vision, he was hired by Microsoft in 2007 to lead a research and development team focusing on computer vision and visualization of digital aerial cameras.
