In the field of remote sensing, IT Services develops scientific methods for analyzing
remote sensing data (optical, TIR and SAR systems) and for creating and analyzing digital
terrain and surface models. Furthermore, climatic and air-hygienic conditions are automatically
analyzed and evaluated, so that they can be considered in urban and regional planning.
