Personal profile

Personal profile

Frank joined the ITC in 2014 as an Assistant Professor. His main research interest is where people, geography, and computer science meet: new modes of production and usage of geographic information (crowdsourced and volunteered), related technological and methodological developments (mobile data collection and edge computing on environmental IoT sensors), and improvement of scientific practice (open and reproducible research). Citizen Science is where all these elements come together.

Since 2009, he holds a PhD (Dr. sc. nat.) from the University of Zurich, followed by work as a post-doctoral researcher at the Joint Research Center of the European Commission and consultant for Piksel Inc. More detailed information on Frank’s CV can be found on his public LinkedIn profile page
