[FOSSGIS-Talk] 52°North Student Innovation Challenge 2024 - DEADLINE EXTENDED

[Ann Hitchcock]

Dear Students,

*!! DEADLINE EXTENDED !!*


    Win 2.500 € for a proof of concept!

52°North announces theStudent Innovation Challenge 2024 - Searchability 
in Research and Spatial Data Infrastructures(RDI/SDI)!

Search functionality in Research and Spatial Data Infrastructures 
(RDI/SDI) is generally limited to a metadata-based approach. However, 
geospatial data - whether vector-based or raster-based - contains a lot 
of interesting data that can currently only be identified by looking at 
the individual dataset. The challenge of this year's Innovation Prize is 
to develop a concept and a possible implementation that allows searching 
within datasets of and RDI/SDI, e.g. on the attribute level. Many 
interesting aspects must be considered: e.g., technical solutions, 
taxonomies and semantics, language/i18n, searching in raster data, and 
many more.

52°North invites students (e.g., BSc, MSc, or PhD)of Geoinformatics, 
Informatics or related fields to submit a proposal that outlines the 
project idea, emphasizes its innovative quality and convincingly 
describes its feasibility, practical use and expected outcome. Up to two 
strong proposals will then be invited to implement a proof of concept. 
Upon successful completion of the project(s) (including a working proof 
of concept implementation), the proposal(s) will be awarded EUR 2,500.

Application submission deadline has been extendedd to !! April 22, 2024 !!
