BIO
ABOUT ME
I graduated in Architecture at Politecnico di Torino, with a thesis on the use of UAV for safety application in construction sites and in technical measures for seismic emergency response.
Along with the Lab G4CH (Laboratory of Geomatics for Cultural Heritage) and the student team DIRECT (DIsaster RECovery Team) I’ve carried out mapping research in earthquake-hit regions in central Italy and other relevant projects in collaboration with the firefighters and first responders.
Since 2017 I have been working at PIC4SeR (PoliTO Interdepartmental Centre for Service Robotics) as industrial representative for DJI, the world’s leader in commercial and civilian drone industry.
Since 2019 I've started working in the field of Underwater data acquisition and processing, along with the ISPRS WG II/7, specializing in underwater photogrammetry.
In 2023 I obtained a Ph.D in Geomatics - Architectural and Landscape Heritage, with a thesis focused on Geomatic techniques for the documentation of the Underwater Cultural Heritage.
I have an extensive knowledge of underwater data acquisition and processing, marine and coastal 2D and 3D mapping, drones and their application for research, survey, humanitarian relief, public safety, built heritage monitoring and damage assessment.
I am qualified as:
• PADI Advanced Open Water Diver (2008UU6234);
• UAV Pilot (attestation N° I.APRA.012801);
• Health & safety at workplaces trainer (crit. 2 of D.M. 6/3/2013);
• Safety coordinator in construction sites (art. 98, par. 4 of D.Lgs. n. 81/2008).
