Berlin, where he investigated the stratigraphic record of the Anthropocene in lacustrine sediments. He has gained professional experience in environmental assessment and GIS analysis and is currently working in the public sector on geoscience projects.
In his PhD, Lukas is investigating the potential of UAV-based remote sensing technologies – such as multi- and hyperspectral imagery and high-resolution RGB photography – for the efficient and accurate localization of large fossil vertebrate skeletons and trace fossils. His research aims to improve the search for fossils through advanced aerial survey methods.
