Li Zhang

Li Zhang is a Senior Academic Councillor and Group Leader at the Institute of Engineering Geodesy (IIGS) within the University of Stuttgart's Faculty 6: Aerospace Engineering and Geodesy. Her work focuses on holistic quality models for construction processes, low-cost GNSS monitoring systems, and multi-sensor fusion in infrastructure projects. She leads the Quality Modeling and Sensor Fusion group within the Cluster of Excellence IntCDC, which emphasizes integrative computational design for architecture.

• PhD in Geodesy (2016, University of Stuttgart)
• Specializes in GNSS error mitigation, construction process digitization, and digital map applications for transport security

Her recent publications analyze geospatial data fusion for rock cliff monitoring, real-time quality assurance in residential construction, and cost-effective positioning for mobile manipulators. She supervises students on topics ranging from terrestrial laser scanning to indoor robot localization, balancing technical precision with sustainability.

Li Zhang actively contributes to the FIG Working Group 5.6 "Cost Effective Positioning" and leads the DVW working group "Quality Assurance". Her teaching portfolio includes courses on deformation analysis, multi-sensor systems, and statistical methods for engineering students.
