I (he/him) am a postdocoral researcher at the Chair of Geoinformatics at the Technical University Dresden and at the Spatio-temporal Modelling Lab at the π Institute for Geoinformatics (ifgi) at the π« University of MΓΌnster. I'm working on projects to make research in πΊοΈ geography, πππ geosciences, and πΊοΈβ€οΈπ» GIScience more open, reproducible, and accessible. I think about both ποΈπΏ data and π§βπ» software to achieve that. I strive to adhere to π Open Science principles and π’ advocate for open reproducible research.
- π NFDI4Earth addresses digital needs of Earth System Sciences in the German national research data infrastructure (NFDI) [2022-08 - ..]
- π© CODECHECK is an open community that introduces minimalistic yet effective code execution practices into peer review processes to make science more transparent and reproducible. [Co-PI; 2019- ..]
- In the BMBF-funded project β« OPTIMETA we strengthen the Open Access publishing system through open citations and spatiotemporal metadata by developing plugins for π Open Journal Systems (OJS). [PI; 2021-08 - 2022-12]
- In the DFG-funded project π Opening Reproducible Research (o2r) we developed tools for increasing reproducibility of computational workflows in based on β¨ research compendia. [2016-01 - 2022-08]
I am interested in π€ improving the scholarly π publication and π― communication process with new π information technology β of course with β‘ Open Source software! I completed my π§βπ PhD Infrastructures and Practices for Reproducible Research in Geography, Geosciences, and GIScience in 2022. My publications, CV, memberships, and service are in my π’ ORCID profile. Before academia, I worked as a consultant and research software engineer at 52Β°North Spatial Information Research GmbH. Because reserach doesn't work without software anymore, I am vice chair of the German association of research software engineers (de-RSE) and am a self-identifying RSE.
I enjoy playing π₯ Ultimate Frisbee β the greatest sport ever invented by man.
