is operating on three different locations, namely: Central Offices &
Geoinformatics Laboratories at Labadario’s Building and the Dionyssos
Satellite Observatory at the NTUA Annex. The main subjects of the Centre
are: storms, strong winds, extreme temperatures, floods, landslides,
droughts, forest fires, desertification, sea level elevation, sea
intrusion in groundwater aquifers, earthquakes, and submarine
landslides. Under the auspices of the Centre all the laboratories of the
School of Rural and Surveying Engineering are participating serving
among others the following activities: Remote Sensing, Satellite &
General Geodesy, Photogrammetry, Chartography, GIS, Qualitative and
Quantitative Methods, Foresight, Geomechanics, Water Resources
Management, Hydrology, Hydraulics, Hydrography, Environmental Issues,
Urban and Regional Planning, Spatial Analysis and Cadastre.
European Workshop
"Risks and Hazards in the Coastal Areas”
On the 27th
January 2005 the workshop “Risks and Hazards in the Coastal Areas” took
