As in the past, UniBo organizes a rich series of events open to citizenship in the frame of the European Researchers' Night initiative.
The event "Far away, near by. In space and time" will take place in the beautiful spaces of Palazzo Magnani, Via Zamboni 20, Bologna, from 6 pm to midnight. It will be held (in Italian) by the Geomatics Area of DICAM Department, with the coordination of Prof. Gabriele Bitelli.
The theme will be addressed with Geomatics techniques and tools:
- satellite remote sensing, with the presentation of the European program Copernicus for Earth Observation and some applications realized by the group for different purposes;
- an experience of crowdmapping open to all the visitors, with the possibility to contribute to the mapping of areas of the world that are today without any cartographic base;
- the historical cartography of Bologna of the last centuries, explored in an innovative way by digital tools in a GIS system through a large touch-screen;
- the 3D survey of Cultural Heritage, with the demonstration of high precision surveying techniques for architecture and objects, using different scanning systems.
Participants: Gabriele Bitelli, Francesca Franci, Chiara Francolini, Giorgia Gatta, Valentina Alena Girelli, Alessandro Lambertini, Pietro Mattivi, Ilenia Selvaggi, Francesca Trevisiol.
