Doctoral research assistant position in geovisual analytics

The Geographic Information Visualization and Analysis group at the University
of Zurich invites applications for a doctoral research assistant position in
Geographic Information Science/Geovisualization to work on a research project
related to geovisual analytics. The highly motivated, successful applicant is
asked to suggest, develop, and answer a timely and relevant research question
related to spatio-temporal knowledge discovery and knowledge construction
using geovisual analytics displays. A research focus in (text or multimedia)
spatialization is also welcomed.

Applicants are required to have successfully completed a Master’s degree (by
thesis) in a relevant area, e.g., Geography, Geographic Information Science,
or Computer Science. You have an established background in quantitative and/or
qualitative methodologies for (online) data collection and data analysis. You
are familiar with information visualization including (carto-)graphic design
and (geo-)data mining. You have solid implementation skills (e.g., Java,
JavaScript, C#, or similar) and are confident in, for example, implementing an
interactive geovisual analytics system. You have a proven ability to work
independently on guided projects, and you are interested in presenting your
results orally and in publications to a larger scientific audience. You have a
very good standard of written and spoken English, and knowledge of German,
whilst not required, would be an advantage.

The successful candidate will be hired on a 1-year contract (starting May 1st,
2018 or soon thereafter), which will be extended to the nominal 4-year PhD
period after positive evaluation.
