GIS and Remote Sensing Specialist at ITHACA, developing Python tools for Copernicus emergency mapping.

Italy

Message

At ITHACA, I work on the Copernicus Emergency Management Service Rapid Mapping, analyzing optical and SAR satellite imagery for post-disaster mapping and emergency response. I currently serve as Project Manager and Technical Manager for the service.

I develop Python tools and automated workflows for GIS and Earth Observation applications, supporting satellite image analysis and operational mapping. My work spans image preprocessing, thematic analysis, and cartographic product generation.

My research has included UAV photogrammetry and 3D geomorphological surveying. I collaborated with Stelvio National Park on the recovery and valorization of a WWI Austro-Hungarian cave shelter using UAV Structure-from-Motion techniques.

Thesis focused on the structural geological survey of the sedimentary and metamorphic units outcropping in an area of about sqkm nearby Ovada (AL). The structural analysis was widened on an area of 225 sqkm, with 18 structural station in which the ductile deformative phases, recorded in the metamorphic basement, were analysed.
The geological survey was implemented with pebble count analysis in sed

The objective of the Bachelor's Thesis was the geological survey of metamorphic and sedimentary units exposed in the Ponzone (AL) area, covering an area of about 20 sqkm
The data were combined with those of two other colleagues for a total area of 60 sqkm.
The geological survey was implemented with structural stations and pebble counting stations.
Data collected on the ground were processed using
