Navigation Journal Club

The Navigation Journal Club is an open weekly meeting of the Geographic Information Visualization and Analysis (GIVA) group at the University of Zurich. Interested researchers and students from other departments/universities are welcome to join. Each week, we will discuss a reading related to navigation as a group. We will focus on a mix of classic readings in navigation research and more recent readings. We will cover topics of navigation in neuroscience, navigation from a cognitive science perspective, computational modeling of navigation, and real-world navigation studies. We also welcome suggestions for readings from the group.

Time: Mondays at 16H.

Place: UZH Irchel, Geography Building Y25, Floor K, Room K32 (library).
