PhD Position in Vehicle Sensor and Remote Sensing Analysis for Road Safety

The Chair of Infrastructure Management, led by Professor Dr. Bryan T. Adey within the Institute of Construction and Infrastructure Management of the Department of Civil, Enviromental, and Geomatic Engineering, has an opening for a PhD student. This position focuses on leveraging vehicle sensors, remote sensing, and machine learning to support modern urban road safety analysis as a part of a larger EU project.

Project background

The new EU Horizon project advances safe active mobility uptake and research by introducing a human-centred, evidence-based approach that integrates actual and perceived safety for pedestrians, cyclists, and micromobility users. Moving beyond conventional crash-focused approaches, it captures near-misses, dynamic interactions, and embodied safety experiences that shape behaviour and mode choice. The project combines multi-source traffic, in...
