On Wednesday, November 10^th, this year's Day of Geomatics (Tag der Geomatik) was hosted by Leica Geosystems in Heerbrugg (https://www.tagdergeomatik.ch/). During this event, schools had the chance to visit exhibitions and attend modules to learn about geodesy and geomatics.

For his outstanding work on Very Long Baseline Interferometry scheduling, the "Dissertationspreis der Stadt Wien" (dissertation award from the city of Vienna) was awarded to Matthias Schartner for his Ph.D. thesis "Optimizing geodetic VLBI scheduling with VieSched++" (https://repositum.tuwien.at/handle/20.500.12708/1466).
