报告人介绍:

Prof. Washington Yotto Ochieng, FREng is the Chair in Positioning and Navigation Systems, Founder and Director of Imperial College Engineering Geomatics (ICEGG) and Head of the Centre for Transport Studies at Imperial College London. He is a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, Chartered Engineer and Winner of Royal Institute of Navigation’s highest award, the Harold Spencer-Jones Gold Medal, for outstanding contribution to navigation. Ochieng’s research interests are in the design of positioning and navigation systems for land, sea and air applications; air traffic management and intelligent transport systems. He has made significant contributions to major international projects including the design of Europe’s GNSS(EGNOS and GALILEO), error modelling, specification of aircraft trajectory management tools for the Single European Sky's ATM Research (SESAR) programme, integrated positioning systems for many applications including ITS, and assessment of the vulnerabilities of critical national infrastructure.

Ochieng has been the PI on many TfL projects including on integrity monitoring and specification of a GNSS antenna for the next generation of iBUS. His other major positioning and navigation projects include those funded the Research Councils UK: SPACE (seamless positioning in all conditions and environment), GAARDIAN (GNSS protection from interference and iNSight (hybridized navigation technologies for high accuracy positioning and navigation); the UK Civil Aviation Authority: GPS Signal-in-Space Monitoring Programme; EU/ESA: ANASTASIA (integrated satellite technologies and techniques for aircraft) and Enhanced precise point positioning. Ochieng is a Fellow of the Institution of Civil Engineers, Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation, Chartered Institute of Navigation and the Chartered Institution of Civil Engineering Surveyors.

报告介绍:

The concept of smart cities means that cities are increasingly relying on ICT and data to solve their economic, social and environmental challenges. Automation and digitalization is transforming almost every aspect of our daily lives and might in future lead to what is called the internet of things (IoT), in which nearly all physical devices would be equipped with network connectivity. In order to allow cities to prosper in the long-term, urban planners and designers have to understand these trends that are currently transforming the built environment and socio-economic structure. In response to the need for innovation in urban planning and design, this lecture explores the potential critical role and need for a parametric planning, modelling and simulation software.
