Joanna Bac-Bronowicz

Joanna Bac-Bronowicz serves as an Associate Professor at Wrocław University of Science and Technology within the Faculty of Geoengineering, Mining and Geology. Her primary affiliation is with the Department of Geodesy and Geoinformatics, where she conducts research on geospatial modeling and cartographic applications. She maintains active office hours through both physical and virtual (Zoom) channels.

Her research focuses on spatio-temporal data modeling, cartographic generalization, and topographic database integration. Key interests include GIS-based environmental analysis, urban green space assessment, and spatial data infrastructure development. She has pioneered methodologies for integrating national geospatial registers and developing multi-resolution topographic databases.

Analysis of her 15 most recent publications reveals strong emphasis on

• Geometric simplification techniques for cartographic features
• Urban ecosystem service evaluation using 3D geoportals
• Integration of LiDAR and remote sensing in smart city frameworks
• Topographic influences on precipitation patterns

Her work consistently bridges theoretical cartography with practical applications in environmental management.

Professional recognition includes membership in key national bodies:

• National Council of Geodesy and Cartography of the Surveyor General of Poland
• Council of Spatial Information Infrastructure at Minister of Development and Technology
• Founding member and President (since 1999) of the Association of Polish Cartographers

She manages significant research projects including 'Methodology and procedures for integration, visualization, generalization and standardization of reference databases' and has authored over 130 publications. Her work with the Lower Silesian Spatial System demonstrates applied expertise in regional geospatial infrastructure.

Current laboratory activities center on the Geocentrum facility (building L-1, room 372) where she develops advanced visualization techniques for spatio-temporal datasets using GIS environments. Her team specializes in converting national geospatial registers into actionable environmental conflict analysis tools.
