Patrick Brosi

Patrick Brosi is a researcher at the Chair of Algorithms and Data Structures at the University of Freiburg. He earned his bachelor's degree in computer science from the University of Tübingen and his master's from the University of Freiburg. After working as a software developer for two years, he joined his current position in 2016 and completed his PhD in 2022. His research focuses on public transit data, geographic information systems (GIS), and algorithmic solutions for spatial data processing. Brosi has contributed to projects like Global Metro Maps from OSM data, Petrimaps, and staty, which address challenges in transit network visualization and data quality assurance.

His teaching responsibilities include assisting in courses on algorithms, data structures, and programming languages such as C++. He has supervised numerous theses on topics ranging from geospatial data processing to public transit system analysis.

Brosi has received recognition for his work, including Best Paper Candidate nominations at SSTD 2021 and ACM SIGSPATIAL 2018. His research emphasizes bridging the gap between theoretical algorithms and practical applications in cartography and transportation systems.
