Summary

I am a Lecturer in Geospatial and Earth Observation with several years of experience in the private sector working on methods development for different applications using remotely sensed datasets.

I am interested in the monitoring of vegetation in agricultural and forest environments, air pollution, and flooding, through the development and application of remote sensing technologies.

My teaching includes contributions to modules on the MSc AI & Data Science course.

Research interests

I am particularly interested in the following themes:

1) retrieval of biophysical/biochemical parameters;

2) methods development for estimation and detection of forest and crop health;

3) impact of flash flooding over agricultural lands;

4) air quality;

5) image processing, fusion, classification, segmentation, and noise removal.
