As highlight of the ZDS congress year you will, once again, get a large overview of current trends, internationally increasing markets, new functional raw materials, innovative technolo- gies, aspects of quality control, sustainability and much more. To this end, the “Kongresszentrum Nord” (Congress Centre North) of the KölnMesse (Cologne Fair) offers the necessary area for the yearly increasing number of participants of up to 350 people and around 50 exhibitors from all over the world. The Network Character The network character is – apart from the interesting congress program – in the focus of this event. The foyer exhibition that will take place in parallel to the congress, the breaks and the festive dinner in the world-famous Chocolate Museum on the fi rst evening of the event will offer the par- ticipants an excellent platform for it. The Scientific Poster Exhibition In addition to the important expert presentations in the congress program the poster exhibition in the foyer will be a central element. The participants of the congress will view the posters during the breaks as well as in the course of the “poster session” that has been exclusively planned. Moreo- ver, it will be for the fi rst time that this year a “poster-slam” has been arranged where the poster exhibitors will get the opportunity to briefl y present the most important aspects of their research to the plenum. The Festive Dinner in the World Famous Chocolate Museum There is no better location than the world-famous Chocolate Museum along the banks of the river Rhine in Cologne in order to end the fi rst day of the CHOCO TEC. In addition to the excellent buffet you can, once again, look forward to a fantastic chocolate buffet as well. Do not only use your time during the dinner to think about the new information you have gained but also start valuable networking activities for your future business with the leadership of the chocolate industry. Be with us and don’t miss THE chocolate event of the year. We are pleased to meet you soon! The Seminar-Team of ZDS -2- The Organizing Committee For many years the CHOCO TEC program has been prepared by an organisation committee that is composed of well-known representatives of important companies of the chocolate industry.

    The Rhine and European Security in the Long Nineteenth Century Throughout history rivers have always been a source of life and of conflict. This book investigates the Central Commission for the Navigation of the Rhine’s (CCNR) efforts to secure the principle of freedom of navigation on Europe’s prime river. The book explores how the most fundamental change in the history of international river governance arose from European security concerns. It examines how the CCNR functioned as an ongoing experiment in reconciling national and common interests that contributed to the emergence of Eur- opean prosperity in the course of the long nineteenth century. In so doing, it shows that modern conceptions and practices of security cannot be under- stood without accounting for prosperity considerations and prosperity poli- cies. Incorporating research from archives in Great Britain, Germany, and the Netherlands, as well as the recently opened CCNR archives in France, this study operationalises a truly transnational perspective that effectively opens the black box of the oldest and still existing international organisation in the world in its first centenary. In showing how security-prosperity considerations were a driving force in the unfolding of Europe’s prime river in the nineteenth century, it is of interest to scholars of politics and history, including the history of international rela- tions, European history, transnational history and the history of security, as well as those with an interest in current themes and debates about transboundary water governance. Joep Schenk is lecturer at the History of International Relations section at Utrecht University, Netherlands. He worked as a post-doctoral fellow within an ERC-funded project on the making of a security culture in Europe in the nineteenth century and is currently researching international environmental cooperation and competition in historical perspective.

    Volume 17, No. 2, Art. 4 May 2016 An Ever-Fixed Mark? On the Symbolic Coping With the Fragility of Partner Relationships by Means of Padlocking Kai-Olaf Maiwald Key words: Abstract: "Padlocking" is a quite recent phenomenon observable in many major cities in Europe padlocking; couple and throughout the world. Couples engrave their initials or names on a padlock, fix it in a public relationships; place, preferably bridges, and throw the keys away. Locations like the Hohenzollern Bridge in relationship status; Cologne, Germany, have become a hotspot for this practice, with thousands and thousands of symbolism; padlocks covering the grids of the banisters. But what kind of practice is it that we are dealing with romantic practices; here? With an objective-hermeneutic approach, the symbolic meaning of the "love lock" and the artifact analysis; practice involved is disclosed. Compared to common, legal practices of institutionalizing couple objective relationships, padlocking seems to explicitly accommodate the fragility of romantic attachments. In hermeneutics this, it is an attempt to perpetuate the feeling of being in love. Table of Contents 1. What is "Padlocking"? 2. Cracking the Symbolic Meaning of the Padlock 3.

  • Messecity Cologne We Combine Space Into a Lively Neighbour- Hood – a Versatile Address Around the Focal Point of the Exhibition Plaza
    MesseCity Cologne We combine space into a lively neighbour- hood – a versatile address around the focal point of the Exhibition Plaza. 4 & 5 Editorial Creating Connections – Experiencing Space. With its cathedral, bridges over the River Rhine and renowned city skyline, Cologne offers a wealth of outstanding locations that are rooted in the long history of the city and evoke the memory of every visitor. Since the construction of the Hohenzollern Bridge more than 100 years ago, European rail traffic was directed from the north to south of the city via the Deutz intersection. Some years later, the imposing exhibition halls of the koelnmesse dating back to the 1920s emerged as a landmark at the city’s former gateway and left a distinct impression in the memory of every visitor to Cologne. The significance of the exhibition hall entrance as a magnet and lively centre of a new city district with a large number of visitors unveils the opportunity of writing a new successful chapter in the city’s history at this particular location. 6 & 7 Near & Far & 10 & 11 Location & Connections One feature that distinguishes MesseCity is its ideal connection with transport net- works, including Cologne-Bonn Airport, and its integration within the city district of Deutz close to the city centre and with an impressive view of Cologne’s cathedral. This connection between mobility and iden- tity makes this site an attractive office loca- tion in a very pleasant environment. 12 & 13 London in 5 hours 15 minutes Location & Local Connections Integration of Urban Space and District – between Veedel (local district), Lanxess Arena and RTL The plot is located on the site of the for- lities.

FOREWORD Dear Cyclists, Discovering Europe on a bicycle – the Rhine Cycle Route makes it possible. It runs from the Alps to a North Sea beach and on its way links Switzerland, France, Germany and the Netherlands. This guide will point the way. Within the framework of the EU-funded “Demarrage” project, the Rhine Cycle Route has been trans- formed into a top tourism product. For the first time, the whole course has been signposted from the source to the mouth. Simply follow the EuroVelo15 symbol. The Rhine Cycle Route is also the first long distance cycle path to be certified in accordance with a new European standard. Testers belonging to the German ADFC cyclists organisation and the European Cyclists Federation have examined the whole course and evaluated it in accordance with a variety of criteria. This guide is another result of the European cooperation along the Rhine Cycle Route. We have broken up the 1233-kilometre course up into 13 sections and put together cycle-friendly accom- modation, bike stations, tourist information and sightseeing attractions – the basic package for an unforgettable cycle touring holiday.

  • 3D Reconstruction of Bridges from Airborne Laser Scanning Data and Cadastral Footprints
    J geovis spat anal (2021) 5:10 https://doi.org/10.1007/s41651-021-00076-9 3D Reconstruction of Bridges from Airborne Laser Scanning Data and Cadastral Footprints Steffen Goebbels1 Accepted: 15 February 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 Abstract The given paper describes a method for automatic 3D reconstruction of bridges from cadastral footprints and airborne laser scanning point clouds. The reconstructed bridges are used to enrich 3D city models. Unlike roofs, decks of bridges are typically smooth without ridge lines or step edges. Therefore, established methods for roof reconstruction are not suitable for bridges. The standard description language for semantic city models is CityGML. This specification of the Open Geospatial Consortium assumes that surfaces are composed of planar polygons. The approximation of smooth decks by planar polygons is achieved by using a medial axis tree. Instead of the medial axis of the footprint, a modified medial axis is computed that does not consider counter bearing edges. The resulting tree represents centerline connections between all counter bearing edges and, in conjunction with filtered height values of a point cloud, serves as the basis for approximation with polygons. In addition to modeling decks, superstructures such as pylons and cables are also derived from the point cloud. For this purpose, planes carrying many superstructure points are detected using the Random Sampling Consensus Algorithm (RANSAC). Images are generated by projecting points onto these planes. Then, image processing methods are used to find connected contours that are extruded to form 3D objects. The presented method was successfully applied to all bridges of two German cities as well as to large bridges built over the Rhine River.

  • Social Activities and Conference Dinner
    Social Activities and Conference Dinner In order to continue a long tradition of this international workshop series, Wednesday afternoon is planned for social activities, followed by a conference dinner. The program starts with the departure at 12:30 and an ensuing bus ride from the Physikzentrum to the inner city of Cologne. The transport will take about 45 to 60 minutes, thus resulting in an estimated arrival around 13:15 to 13:30, in the area close to the Cologne cathedral. The precise address of the arrival station is Kom¨odienstr.2. From there on, several possibilities for guided tours have been prepared. The possibilities, together with their respective periods of time, are: • Tour of the Cologne Cathedral including an ascension to the roof (16:00 { 17:30) • Tour of Museum Ludwig (15:30 { 16:30) • Tour of the Cologne Altstadt and breweries (15:30 { 17:30) Meeting points for the tours are marked in the map of Cologne center by red stars. Figure 1: Cologne center. Meeting points for the excursions are shown by red stars. Buses leave back to Bonn from Kom¨odienstr.2 at 18:30. However, even in case you do not plan to participate on any of these tours, the area surrounding the Cologne cathedral offers many nice possibilities to pass the time. Numerous Cafes and Restaurants are situated close to the Cologne cathedral. Another possibility within walking distance is the Rhine river, providing for the perfect environment for a nice stroll along the its way through Cologne. There is also the chance to visit the Hohenzollern Bridge.
