*Post doctorate in Geovisualization – 18 months *

*Multi-scale spatiotemporal urban data visualization for urban 
communication and development *

*TyCiTy Project *

Territories constantly need to evolve in order to face demographic, 
energetic, environmental, economic and heritage-related challenges. The 
dual pressure of constrained financial resources and civic expectations 
calls for tools to predict and explain those evolutions. 3D 
visualization and mapping tools were designed to meet those needs. 
However, software solutions struggle to find their place, as they 
require constant updating. This has led to the generating of numerous, 
expensive and ill-adapted city modelling generators. The TyCiTy project 
proposes to design an innovative production tool for 3D modelling of the 
territory, in order to understand its evolutions and to plan for the 
future. Its users, whether they are communities or private actors, will 
be able to create autonomously 3D communication models from their own 
GIS data, to predict visualization routes, and thus to communicate 
better on the territory.

The TyCiTy is a SME research project from the Images&Réseaux Centre 
(2018-2020).

*Missions*

·To elaborate scenarios for urban data use in collaboration with the 
users (communities, urban planning agencies, planners);

·To propose methods for the multi-scale spatiotemporal urban data 
visualization for urban communication and development;

·To participate in the prototyping and to carry out user tests.

*Key words *

Geomatics, information visualization, urban data models, spatiotemporal 
data, user tests.

*AAU Laboratory (*http://aau.archi.fr <http://aau.archi.fr/>*) – CRENAU 
team *

The Ambiances, Architectures, Urbanités Laboratory is a joint research 
unit, co-accredited by Centrale Nantes (ECN), CNRS and the Graduate 
School of Architecture of Nantes (ENSAN). The TyCiTy project is part of 
the “Building architecture and the urban” axis of the AAU Laboratory. 
The CRENAU team is the Laboratory’s team in Nantes. Its main duty is to 
contribute to an ambiances theory centred on the immersive simulation, 
in situ approach and assistance in architectural and urban projects.

*Candidates *

PhD in geomatics, geovisualization or information visualization
Desired skills: visualization, user tests, data models, programming
Valuable skills: visual perception, urban planning, architecture
