Research Overview

BSc and MSc in Civil engineering and  PhD in GIS and Geomatics engineering. Research focuses on the spatial modeling using AI and ML and observation of Natural and Anthropogenic hazards and risk assessment (Landslide, floods, air pollution, LiDAR, TLS), as well as vulnerability of land uses. I believe that research is useful in particular when it helps solving real-world problems.
