About me

I'm Adrian Batzill, a freelancer software developer (Linux, Windows) and system Administrator (Linux).
I received my bachelors degree from the Albert Ludwigs Universität Freiburg in 2013 and my masters degree at the University of Applied Science in Ravensburg/Weingarten in 2016.

My main interest covers mostly high performance backend servers for GIS systems, including route planning, map systems and information retrieval.

Contributed to a whole load of Open Source projects - No way to mention them all. The Linux kernel, Zero Ballistics, AngelScript, MonoGame, Gosmore, GraphHopper, Nominatim, ...

Preferred programming languages (in this order): C++, Python, Java, C, C#, PHP, TCL.

Preferred libraries and toolkits: Boost, Qt, OpenCL, OpenGL, cURL, Mapnik, PostGis, GDAL, MFC and many more...

On this page, you can find a few of the projects I published.

Cookies

Our website makes use of so-called cookies in order to recognize repeat use of our website by the same user/internet connection subscriber. Cookies are small text files that your internet browser downloads and stores on your computer. They are used to improve our website and services. In most cases these are so-called "session cookies" that are deleted once you leave our website.

To an extent, however, these cookies also pass along information used to automatically recognize you. Recognition occurs through an IP address saved to the cookies. The information thereby obtained is used to improve our services and to expedite your access to the website.

You can prevent cookies from being installed by adjusting the settings on your browser software accordingly. You should be aware, however, that by doing so you may not be able to make full use of all the functions of our website.

Posting Comments

On our website we offer you the opportunity to post comments about individual articles. For this purpose, the IP address of the user/internet connection subscriber is stored.

In order to protect input forms on our site, we use the “reCAPTCHA” service of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter "Google."

To our knowledge, the referrer URL, the IP address, the behaviour of the website visitors, information about the operating system, browser and length of stay, cookies, display instructions and scripts, user input behaviour and mouse movements in the “reCAPTCHA” checkbox are conveyed to “Google.”

Google uses the information obtained, among other things, to digitize books and other printed matter as well as to optimize services such as Google Street View and Google Maps (e.g. house number and street name recognition).

The IP address provided as part of “reCAPTCHA” is not merged with other data from Google unless you are logged into your Google Account at the time the "reCAPTCHA" plug-in is used. If you want to prevent this transmission and storage of data by “Google” about you and your behaviour on our website, you must log out of “Google” before you visit our site or before using the reCAPTCHA plug-in.
