Summary of research areas

Christine Legner and her research team develop concepts, tools and methods for data management. Sustainability has become a research focus, because reporting on sustainability initiatives and goals requires collecting, processing, and interpreting substantial amounts of data (for instance, on emissions or recycled material) that were previously neither captured nor analyzed.
