This site is at a research stage for berte & harmey. The site serves as a prompt for further investigation: this location could be seen as an illuminated island within the closed data opacity of the rest of Bavaria with the raw LiDAR point cloud data of the town only released for free* within the context of a specific scientific study. This town was used as a test site for researchers’ aerial observation field campaigns, in order to detect spatial change detection within a small urban area (seasonal vegetation, building demolitions and new construction, objects..). The surrounding hinterland has a strong connection to the technical image as it was here that Alois Senefelder discovered the process of lithography using one of the fine grained limestone plates which are native to this region. Solnhofen, Ingolstadt and Eichstätt, the main centers of the lithographic industry, located around the limestone quarries are also sites of contemporary containment in the industry of asylum and migration.
