About me

I currently work as a research group leader at TU Munich at the Chair for Traffic Engineering and Control and as a Scientist at AIT Austrian Institute of Technology in the Digital Resilient Cities team. My research interest is in interdisciplinary approaches in urban analysis. This encompasses impact assessment of policy interventions and urban design solutions using mesoscopic and microscopic traffic simulation and statistical GIS analysis. I have experience in presenting these results to citizens and stakeholders, engaging them with digital participation tools and evaluating their design solutions and feedback, which facilitates decision making in urban planning.

Urban analysis

Finding a solution in urban and traffic planning requires a quantifiable analysis of options to compare benefits and downsides of planning solutions. My research focus has been on the impact assessment of policy interventions for traffic and evaluating public place configurations.

Traffic simulation

For my research, I chiefly have worked with the agent-based simulation framework MATSim to implement mesoscopic traffic scenarios for new mobility services or urban transformations. Recently, I have also conducted pedestrian simulations at a smaller scale.

Stakeholder engagement

As part of my research, I developed the field of Citizen Design Science, which applies the principles of citizen science to urban design challenges. In this context, I organized participation studies using map-based online participation methods such as public participatory GIS (PPGIS).

Projects

This is an overview of the projects I have worked on.

Superblocks

Tune Our Block

This project analyses implementation and participation strategies as well as the potential and traffic impacts of superblocks in European cities.
