Robert Kalasek
Senior Scientist
Geographic Information Systems | Spatial Analysis | Energy Planning
Robert Kalasek is an urban and regional researcher specializing in GIS-based spatial analysis. Since 1997, he has been working with GIS - the central tool of spatial analysis - while adapting to evolving research priorities. Current research areas include data-driven analyses related to the energy transition and, in particular, energy spatial planning. Another key focus is mobility, with a clear emphasis on accessibility analyses. A recent addition is the examination of COVID-19 in its spatiotemporal dimension.
