RIM welcomes Guest Professor Xinhao Wang
With great pleasure, we welcome Professor Xinhao Wang to our RIM research group until the end of November 2023. Over the next two months, we are planning exciting collaborations in the field of 3D modeling and GIS applications for research and teaching. By November 30, 2023, he will provide our faculty's students with insights into the education of urban planners in the United States and the programs offered by the College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning at the University of Cincinnati. He will present this information at the RIM lecture "Raumplanung International."
Additionally, he will conduct four input lectures on the topics of "3D GIS, 3D Scene, LiDAR, CityEngine, and ArcGIS Urban in urban planning" as part of the Master's seminar "Modeling and Simulation for Environmental and Urban Planning." Furthermore, he will participate as a speaker in sessions related to A- and M-projects and the RIM Research Colloquium. During these sessions, he will engage with students, doctoral candidates, and staff, sharing his extensive experiences in research and teaching. Please find below the detailed work schedule of Professor Xinhao Wang:

Prof. Wang obtained his doctoral degree in Regional Planning from the University of Pennsylvania and is a professor of Urban Planning at the University of Cincinnati. His research focuses on the application of GIS in environmental planning, including the analysis of spatial patterns of water quality indicators, the connection between land use and water quality, and GIS-based evaluation of flood-prone areas.
Prof. Wang's broad research interests align perfectly with those of our research group. We wish him a pleasant stay in Dortmund and anticipate fruitful synergies.
