Research engineering position proposal
MATIS laboratory - Institut Géographique National
Paris- FRANCE
Development of a SaaS photogrammetric plotting facility in a web-based immersive city navigation tool
Context
The position is supported by the FUI TerraMobilita project (period 2011-2014). This project aims to develop new automatic processes for creating and updating 3D maps of city streets, sidewalks, urban furniture, etc. enabling accessibility diagnostics and to develop services and applications around mobility.
It follows the FUI Terra Numerica project (3D City modeling and its applications) and the iTowns project (Image-based Town Online Web Navigation and Search-engine) funded by the ANR that developped online immersive navigation of multimedia-augmented street view panoramic images, searchable through a search engine data mining the annotated images (text OCR, road signs, faces...).
MATIS laboratory
The MATIS laboratory of the Institut Géographique National (IGN), which is the French Mapping Agency, is specialized in 3D data collection from imagery and thus has strong competences in photogrammetric computer vision, image analysis and remote sensing from both geospatial imagery of and ground based imagery (e.g., provided by mobile mapping systems). It is composed of 30-40 researchers, including 16 permanent members, post-docs, engineers, and Phd theses.
Subject
Participation to the development of a web-based visualization system that allows the navigation through huge amounts of laser/image data and the integrated visualization of existing maps (e.g. Open-data for Paris), 3D objects, and 3D models.
Specification and development of a flexible and intuitive photogrammetric modeler to plot/generate 3D objects (punctual, linear, surface, and volumes) to enrich urban data-bases.
Profile
- The candidate should have an engineering experience in the design of complex software systems that include network communication and 2D/3D visualization (OpenGL).
- 3D web technologies (WebGL / Flash Molehill) and GPGPU (openCL or CUDA) skills are welcome.
- Good knowledge of the C++ programming language is mandatory
- Easiness in creating GUI for the web (AS3/JavaScript/HTML) is welcome.
- Good spoken and written English.
Location and salary
Research will be held at the MATIS laboratory of the Institut Géographique National in Saint-
Mandé, Paris, France (94).
The net income will be between 2000 € and 2300 € per month depending on the experience
The position will be for 2 years, and will start in January 2012.
Contacts
Applications should be sent to:
- Alexandre Devaux Phone: 00 33 1 43 98 85 73 E-mail: alexandre.devaux@ign.fr
- Nicolas Paparoditis Phone: 00 33 1 43 98 83 92 E-mail: nicolas.paparoditis@ign.fr
Applications consist of a cover letter describing how your research or engineering experience is relevant to the position, a resume and publication list.
Contact either of the supervisors for more information about any aspect of the position and
research topic.
Deadline: November 30th, 2011
