My academic interest is to find new approaches to improve urban sanitation services and technical networks. I am concerned with research projects that have an interdisciplinary vision and aim at a better understanding of environmental and urban planning problems related to public or municipal services, based on an urban data, spatial analysis or network-oriented approach.
Methodologies used in past and current projects include urban configuration and environmental impact analysis, service optimization, applied graph theory, exploitation of urban data and/or open data.
The techniques used in my projects and that I consider essential for the environmental disciplines are the geographic information systems associated with machine learning and visualizations methods (such as GIS automation, Geo-Python, among others).
My teaching experience and interest include courses on geographic information systems, environmental impact and problems, environmental engineering fundamentals and statistics.
Urban environmental services, urban data analysis, geo-informatics, SIG, visualization and applied graph theory.
