Univ. Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr.techn. Gottfried Mandlburger was appointed as University Professor for Optical bathymetry at TU Wien with effect from April 1, 2024. He is assigned to the Insitute  of Geodesy and Geoinformation, opens an external URL in a new window (E120) at the Faculty of Mathematics and Geoinformation.

Gottfried Mandlburger studied geodesy at the TU Wien (graduated in 1995) and has been associated with the TU Wien ever since: in 2006 he received his doctorate with a dissertation on the subject of “Topographic models for applications in hydraulics and hydrology, opens an external URL in a new window”. After a 3-year research stay at the University of Stuttgart (2017-2019), he returned to the TU Wien as a senior scientist and applied for a career position on the topic of "Optical Bathymethry" in 2021, which he successfully finished on December 1, 2022 as an associate professor. In January 2022 he also completed his habilitation with a habilitation thesis on the subject of "Bathymetry from active and passive photogrammetry, opens an external URL in a new window" and thus obtained the Venia Docendi for the subject Photogrammetry. At the German Society for Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Geoinformation (DGPF), opens an external URL in a new window, he chairs the working group "Remote Sensing - Application: Hydrography" and is also the scientific coordinator of the LiDAR software package OPALS, opens an external URL in a new window (Orientation and Processing of Airborne Laser Scanning data), which is an was and is being developed by the TU Wien.

Gottfried Mandlburger's scientific home is the Research Unit of Photogrammetry, opens an external URL in a new window (E120-07). There he is primarily concerned with the development of methods for evaluating data from active and passive remote sensing sensors (laser scanners, multispectral cameras) in a wide variety of application areas, especially in water surveying (bathymetry).
