This symposium, organized in the context of the 20th Swiss Geoscience Meeting, is supported by the Swiss Geocomputing Centre. It will take place Saturday, 19 November 2022 at UNIL.
The ever-improving availability of numerical geo-referenced information is a central issue in geosciences which led scientists to search for new tools able to extract knowledge and insights from data. While current methods proved to be helpful for data reduction and analysis, several issues (e.g., information bias and noise, scale and mapping unit, selection of the predictor variables, uncertainty quantification and representation) still need to be addressed. The main objective of this session is to stimulate a dialogue about the different issues we face when performing and developing quantitative methods for mining, analyzing, modeling and visualizing high-dimensional geo-environmental data.
We welcome theoretical advances such as:
We welcome applications covering the wide domain of geo-environmental science including natural and anthropogenic hazards (e.g., floods, landslides, earthquakes, wildfires); soil, water, and air pollution; weather, hydrologic, and climate predictions; interaction between the geosphere and the anthroposphere (e.g., land and soil degradation, urban sprawl, environmental impact of agriculture).
Abstract submission is open!
