Prof. Dr. Martin Raubal is a Full Professor at the Institute for Cartography and Geoinformation, Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering, ETH Zurich. He leads research on spatial decision-making, mobile GIS, and location-based services, with applications in transportation, energy, and aviation. His work integrates cognitive engineering and eye-tracking to analyze human mobility and interaction with geospatial systems. Doctorate in Geoinformation (with distinction), Vienna University of Technology (2001) MS in Spatial Information Science and Engineering, University of Maine (1997) Dipl.-Ing. in Surveying Engineering and Geoinformation, Vienna University of Technology (1998) His research focuses on spatiotemporal human mobility, cognitive models for GIS, and sustainable urban systems. Key projects include the Digital Underground initiative at the Singapore-ETH Centre and the Empirical Use and Impact Analysis of Mobility-as-a-Service (EIM). Awards include the UV-Helava Prize and multiple best paper recognitions. Recent publications emphasize 3D spatial analysis, AI-driven geospatial tools, and causal inference in mobility modeling. Collaborations span institutions like Lufthansa Systems, SBB, and ETH-IVT. His lab investigates applications such as electric vehicle charging networks, bikeability indexes, and augmented reality in transportation planning.
