About
Petri Rönnholm serves as a Senior University Lecturer in the Department of Built Environment at Aalto University's School of Engineering. His expertise encompasses photogrammetry, laser scanning, remote sensing, and digital image processing for built environment applications.
His research centers on geoinformatics, particularly 3D modeling and mapping of built environments using advanced techniques like SLAM and terrestrial laser scanning. He investigates drift correction in indoor mapping, photogrammetry for cultural heritage, and open data solutions for urban planning. Key projects include watershed analysis visualizations and methane flux studies in ecological systems.
Recent publications (2021-2025) reveal a focus on integrating geospatial technologies with machine learning and game engines for environmental analysis. Major contributions span indoor mapping automation, archaeological photogrammetry, and NoSQL query systems for spatial data, demonstrating strong interdisciplinary collaboration in environmental and construction engineering.
He actively participates in Aalto University's Geoinformatics research group, developing methodologies for point cloud processing and change detection in built environments through partnerships with leading researchers in the field.
