Moritz Schneider

I am a researcher at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and a PhD candidate at the university of Wuppertal, Germany. In my research, I focus on the development of methods that strengthen the situation awareness of emergency responders and thus can support them in making informed decisions. This includes the development of dashboards and interactive maps that dynamically display all available information about an ongoing emergency situation and that allow predictions for the near future. I am particular interested in applications where inference drawn from incomplete and uncertain information can be utilized to inform emergency responders. One field of application are systems of interconnected critical infrastructures where localized failures, caused by events such as floods, can trigger cascading effects.
