GEOXIP on television: BR Unser Land - Flower mixture in the logo, advertising in the field
GEOXIP on television: BR 'Unser Land' - Flowering mix in the logo, advertising in the field "But let's start with a crazy idea. Flower strips as advertising space in the field. Well, we couldn't imagine anything like that, so we took a look at it and... [short pause] were surprised!" says Florian Kienast, excitingly introducing the first segment of the popular TV show 'Unser Land' on BR television. The start-up GEOXIP will be presented with the spectacular logo extension for "ERDINGER WEISSBRÄU" at prime time on Friday at 7.00 pm. The program 'Unser Land' is one of the most popular and widest-reaching formats of all. Bavarian Broadcasting has regularly accompanied us here since the logo was planted. Often in the rain. But that's just part of it out here. On an area of over 13 hectares, we have sown millions of native field and wild flowers here - in the middle of conventional cultivation,...
How flowering islands can make fields barrier-free and connect habitats better than conventional flower strips
How flowering islands can make fields barrier-free and connect habitats better than conventional flower strips Freising. Flower strips at the edge of fields make sense and have long been a familiar sight. But just a few meters beyond that, the habitat for butterflies and wild bees often ends again. In many places, the distances to the next oasis are too great when a "treated" field represents an insurmountable barrier. In addition to flowering strips and natural habitats, flowering islands in the middle of fields therefore represent a small revolution in modern arable farming. This is because they break through the usual structures directly in the field. Using the innovative and biodiverse field advertising of ERDINGER WEISSBRÄU in the north of Munich as an example, we explain the principle of logo cultivation with native flowers in the middle of conventional cultivation and compare the habitat for insects with a "normal flowering strip". The field selected for the huge ground picture is located to the west of Achering (Freising) and is perfectly visible on approach. But flowering islands in the form of...
Shooting day in the fire salamander of Tittmoning
Tittmoning. Luisa, Dora and Selina from the GEOXIP start-up's creative team meet up in a cornfield in Tittmoning (Chiemgau) at the beginning of September. Because right here, in the middle of what at first glance appears to be a rather inconspicuous cornfield, a huge fire salamander is hiding, consisting of millions of sunflowers! In the meantime, the large ground image (geoglyph) has become known far beyond the Traunstein district and the press has reported on the "largest fire salamander in the world". Incidentally, nothing, absolutely nothing, came of the originally planned script. The first decision was: No models. We'll do it ourselves. We are a start-up and we have Luisa, Dora and Selina. Then there was the planned set in front of the field. It was actually really nice. But Luisa, Dora and Selina would much rather be in the middle of the field. Right into the thicket of plants. Much nicer, much more authentic, much more adventurous. But also wet, loamy and spider webs between the sunflowers. But no matter! In the end...
Largest sports branding in the world sown on 50 hectares of field at Berlin Airport
Largest sports branding in the world sown on 50 hectares of field at Berlin Airport Just in time for the start of the 2024 European Championships, we from startup GEOXIP have sown what is probably the largest sports branding in the world with millions of flowers on a field directly at Berlin Airport. The dimensions are gigantic. The field covers an area of 490,000 square meters, i.e. around 50 hectares (equivalent to around 70 soccer pitches). The circumference of the field is 2.8 kilometers. If you were to walk around every detail, you would cover almost 5 kilometers. The branding and lettering have a circumference of 4,574 meters. The sown lettering "YOU GOT THIS" is an incredible 600 meters (!) long and each letter is at least 65 meters high. The surface area of a single letter such as the "O" alone is 2,890 square meters, roughly the size of 10 small terraced houses with gardens. Here, however, it provides a habitat for thousands of native field and wild flowers and creates a network in the middle of...
Sown bee at Lake Waginger See as a biotope network in the test project for soil images
Chiemgau. Hoch über dem Waginger See mit Blick in die Bayrischen Alpen haben wir mit unserem GEOXIP-Team zusammen mit SHH (Marcus und Sepp Hastreiter, Felix Schnurpfeil) die neuesten Entwicklungen unserer Vector-Seed Technik erprobt und dabei ganz nebenbei ein spektakuläres wie sinnvolles Bodenbild mit Biene und Sonnenblume im Acker versteckt. Weil so viele uns fragen und auch die Presse das Thema aufgegriffen hat, verraten wir Euch gerne ein paar Hintergrundinfos zu unserem Demo-Projekt in unserer Heimat. Logoanbau ist eine Chance für Wildbienen und heimische Artenvielfalt Auf 77.150 Quadratmetern (das entspricht etwa 10 aneinandergereihten Fußballfeldern) haben wir mit 204.000 Sonnenblumen und ca. 5,4% untergesäten heimischen Feld- und Wildblumen eine Biene mit Sonnenblume mitten in ein konventionelles Maisfeld mit unserer Technik eingesät. Der Landwirt kann es sich bei unserem gut vergütetem Projekt erlauben, auf rigorose Unkrautvernichtung zu verzichten und neben den eingesäten Sonnenblumen im Feld auch einmal “Unkraut” und (ansonsten undenkbare) Untersaat mit…
From sketch to field artwork Fire Salamader with sunflowers in the field
A fire salamander is hiding as a geoglyph in the field Tittmoning. In the district of Traunstein, a fire salamander is currently hiding in a small field in the middle of an industrial area as a work of field art. But what is it all about? The fire salamander is a specially protected species in our homeland, making it the perfect and endearing symbol of species protection, biodiversity and high-tech testing. To demonstrate our new high-precision sowing process, Christian drew a salamander on paper, which we then sowed many times larger with sunflowers in a small maize field in Tittmoning. The flowering strip - here in the form of a salamander rather a flowering island - is therefore in the middle of the field. Geoglyphs and ooh soil pictures: It all starts with a sketch: What is about 20 centimetres on paper now becomes 150 meters on this field. Of course, it could always be bigger. But that's not what we were interested in here. Quite the opposite. This is about...
Hello Taylor! Antenne Bayern. Huge ground picture at the MUC Airport field
"Servus Taylor! Antenne Bayern". Info on the making of the giant soil image at MUC Airport We at the start-up GEOXIP have specialized in sowing giant soil images with field and wild flowers and developing the technology for this. Using high-precision seeding methods such as Vector-Seed® and Multilayerseed, we enable the cultivation of flowering geobrandings. What grows as a spectacular branding when seen from a distance brings back native biodiversity on the ground. With geobranding, components of a lettering usually become oversized flowering islands that can connect biotopes and provide habitats and dispersal potential for wild bees and insects. All this is possible even in the middle of conventional cultivation. Nothing is lost. Everything makes sense. The "Servus Taylor!" geobranding was created by GEOXIP using state-of-the-art DGPS methods with a resolution of 1.7 centimetres in the Munich flight path. The field had already been harvested and is used in this project for a short time as a natural stage before sowing an extensive catch crop, from which the farmer also benefits....

Giant geoglyph with corn and flowers in the field for the big ERDINGER summer fairy tale
A clear statement for joie de vivre, closeness to nature and biodiversity: Gigantic floor image at MUC Airport – ERDINGER Weißbräu inspires and amazes. Nature and biodiversity benefit. Just in time for EM2024, the private brewery ERDINGER Weißbräu is setting a sustainable example of joie de vivre and closeness to nature with what is probably the world's largest brewing logo ever sown. Because the stage here is not traditional or social media, but nature itself in all its glory. And it shows that it is absolutely worth respecting and promoting. In the spaces between the ERDINGER geoglyph, native field and wildflowers will then grow. Among them are rare species worthy of protection, which were deliberately selected here. What everyone knows are normal flower strips at the edge of the field. Here, however, in the middle of conventional cultivation, entire flowering islands are allowed to thrive and give insects such as wild bees a springboard to spread. Biotopes are networked with the flowering islands. The nature sponsorship of ERDINGER Weißbräu makes sense and can be experienced up close. The...
Lettering in the field: Lufthansa Group ground picture in the sunrise
Huge lettering in the field: Lufthansa Group ground picture at sunrise On the approach to the runway at Munich Airport, a huge ground picture of the Lufthansa Group can be seen from afar. The upward message is hard to miss, because its dimensions alone are so gigantic that it breaks all conventional boundaries. The elements of the lettering have a total circumference of 5.6 kilometers! Individual letters are up to almost 40 (!) meters high and have a surface area of up to 1,200 square meters! You could easily build a detached house with a large garden on some of these letters. But that's not the point, of course. Seen from the air, each individual letter is a message. On the ground, each letter forms its own flowering island and will then link biodiverse habitats and biotopes at Pullinger Weiher from spring onwards. An approach at sunrise is already spectacular. In the short video we show...
