Two animation movies created by Graphitech on the history of the city of Trento have been inserted on the ArchelogiaViva web TV Channel.

• Trento Ieri Oggi e Domani. Uno sguardo sulla città. La storia, i luoghi, i progetti. 2000 anni di trasformazioni urbane.
  
• Trento Ieri Oggi e Domani. Dalla Nascita del Principato Vescovile alle Soglie del Cinquecento. Dal 1000 al 1500.
  

BRISEIDE will be one of the sponsor of the forthcoming Defence Geospatial Intelligence 2011 - The Premier Meeting Place for Defence Intelligence & GIS Software Professionals. Defence Geospatial Intelligence (DGI) is Europe's largest and most international annual gathering de dicated to the high-level discussion of the importance and the major challenges of the use of geospatial intelligence in both defence and national security operations.

DGI brings together heads of Geospatial Intelligence, Remote Sensing, GIS Mapping, Satellite Imagery and Analysis within the Military, Governmental and National Security sectors. It attracts professionals who are responsible for using, and integrating, geo based capabilities in their operations and organisations. DGI provides a unique forum for defence intelligence to discuss and debate the development of geospatial intelligence capabilities across the globe in defence and security sectors - With over 600 attendees year on year, DGI has becomes Europe's key forum for geospatial strategy.

Staff from Graphitech will join the event with a booth at the event.

Graphitech will join the retreat of the Department of Mechanical and Structural Engineering (DIMS) of the University of Trento (Italy) on December 20-21, 2010. During the retreat, the status of the research is reviewed and disseminated to the audience, thinking over future directions through stimulating roundtables and discussions with researchers from foreign universities, industries, public companies, professional engineers, students, and the entire community.

The retreat is organized over two days. The first day is devoted to understanding the mission, the strategy, and the vision of research and higher education, through a stimulating open discussion with speakers from other European and US departments and from funding agencies.
During the second day, Graphitech will present their ongoing projects, providing a concise yet comprehensive overview of the various research activities carried out. The retreat is a unique opportunity to get an overview of many developments in top engineering research areas, such as mechatronics, structural engineering, and sustainable energy, with a critical eye opened towards grounding future research directions on industrial and societal needs.
