Fachpraktikum: Algorithms for OpenStreetMap data

JETZT AUCH IN ILIAS

Goal of this Fapra is getting used to working with OSM data. We will cover the full pipeline from preprocessing raw OSM data, implementation of suitable graph representations to actual algorithms working on the extracted data. At the end, every participant is expected to create an individual project which does something interesting with OSM data. The final grade is based on this individual project only.

Your are free to choose any programming language.

We’ll meet Tuesday 13.10.2015 at 17:30 in room 0.124

Aufgaben Tasks

Submission of Final Projects

by end of April 2016
Everybody has to give a short presentation of his/her project (15-20 minutes)
brief project description (5-10 pages) as well as archive of source code including instructions how to compile/run
