Overview

Geodesy and Geoinformatics covers a wide range of tasks and activities. The discipline deals with current social issues ranging from climate change to the impact of the growing world population on land. Data produced from geodetic satellite missions facilitate the global monitoring of sea-level rise. Geodetic methods document ownership of land and its valuation, including the real estate built on it – an important basis for sustainable urban and rural development.
