Garching near Munich. The 32nd edition of the international and interdisciplinary conference EnviroInfo will take place at the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre at Garching near Munich between 5th and 7th September 2018 and will focus on the following six key topics and their relevance to environmental informatics: 1. Efficient Computing, 2. Virtual Discoveries, 3. Managing Disruption, 4. Big Data, 5. Open Science and 6. Distributed processing and sensing. BayFOR will give a presentation about environmental and energy research in Europe and provide a hands-on workshop about EU funding for research and innovation in the field of environment.

EnviroInfo 2018 is the latest edition of the long standing, globally established interdisciplinary conference series on leading environmental information and latest communication technologies. For the 32nd time, experts and visitors will discuss and learn about the interface of information technology and environment and apply this knowledge in workshops.

This year EnviroInfo has chosen the aforementioned six topics to provide continuity with previous EnviroInfo conferences and to deepen the understanding of the community within the field of environmental informatics. To do so, numerous topics of special interest will be presented, including areas such as disaster management of resilience and public safety, environmental health issues, energy aware software engineering and development and, among many more, sustainable mobility. In the keynote speech, Prof. Dr. Xiaoxiang Zhu will discuss Big Data for 4D Global Urban Mapping.
In addition to the different presentations, visitors will get the chance to visit a variety of workshops, where experts will give detailed insights about the practical relevance of the discussed topics.
