Biography
Civil Engineering with a PhD
entitled 'Close-Range Photogrammetry applied to Agroforestry Engineering' from
the Department of Cartographic and Land Engineering, University of Salamanca
(SP, 2016). Postdoctoral studies from Delft University of Technology
(The Netherlands) in the department of Geosciences and Remote Sensing
(2015-2017). Research staff member at Purdue University for the Institute for Plant Science,
College of Agriculture (IN, USA) (2018-2021). Distinguished researcher at the University of Salamanca (SP) (2022-2023). Currently, Scientific Researcher at CIRGEO (Interdepartmental
Research Center of Geomatics) from the University of Padua (IT) (2024). Active member from TIDOP research group (Geomatic
Technologies for the 3D digitization and modelling of complex objects)
(Spain).
Her research aims to advance the cross-disciplinary
generation of plant scientists and engineers.
Her interests to date have
been focused primarily on close-range hyperspectral photogrammetry and LiDAR by
alternative platforms and specifically in computer vision and deep learning
analysis by multi-sensor data fusion applied to plant science.
