The Engineering Risk Analysis Group (www.cee.ed.tum.de/era) at Technische Universität München is looking for a PhD student to work on
Probabilistic spatial data modeling for community risk management

We aim to develop a probabilistic digital twin framework for risk and resilience management of urban areas for natural or man-made fire hazards. A particular focus of the research will be on the representation of knowledge uncertainty in geographical information systems and their impact on optimal decision-making for risk management. The developed framework shall consistently account for uncertainties when combining existing spatial data repositories with information from satellites, urban monitoring systems and other sources using a Bayesian framework. The PhD student will have secondments at Delft University of Technology with Prof. Maria Nogal and at Matrisk in Switzerland with Dr. Matthias Schubert.

The PhD position is part of the FOURIER Doctoral Network and offers an exciting opportunity to work with leading experts and a larger group of 15 PhD students across Europe to work on Artificial Intelligence solutions for monitoring and maintaining large-scale complex infrastructures via the IntelliWind MSCA Doctoral Network funded by the European Commission’s Horizon 2023 Marie Sklodowska-Curie programme.
