My main expertise is in sustainable urban planning and spatial analysis tools. It relates strategic planning, land use planning, integrating socio-economic and environmental perspectives in multi-stakeholder spatial planning processes, and urban dynamics, to the use of Remote Sensing, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), statistical analysis, or earth observations. For example, my research experience includes the analysis of disaster management and decision-making supported by remote sensing techniques (e.g. collection, process, and analysis of earth observation data to monitor natural disasters such as wildfires, calculation of various indices such as NVDI, NBR, dNBR, etc.), as well as urban security and social resilience. over the last four years, I have acquired academic and professional experience in applying remote sensing data techniques and developing plans and reports, to understand how spatial dynamics influence different variables in the context of sustainable urban development and environmental planning. This has given me a solid foundation in the methodological tools and transferable skills. To conclude, I believe those experiences would add great value to your projects and further support to understand natural and human phenomena through data-driven solutions.
