computer science gis remote sensing automated decision-making tools

Biography

She graduated in Computer Science-Information Systems at the National University of Santiago del Estero, Argentina, and she got a Master Degree in Natural Resources at the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina. She is a PhD student in Geomatics and Spatial Systems from the Mario Gulich Institute of Advanced Space Studies. (National Commission for Space Activities, Argentina). She specialized in the subject of Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing. She works as a researcher at INTA, Santiago del Estero Agricultural Experimental Station. Integrates multidisciplinary teams in various international projects, such as: Euroclima+ Project "Living and producing in the Chaco Forest", Mapbiomas Chaco Project, Mapping of the state of pasture degradation in the Gran Chaco region (INTA-TNC Agreement), Fontagro Project "Irrigation Advisory System (SAR) when to irrigate and how much to irrigate?", among others. Her main area of ??interest is the development of automated tools and methodologies to generate information for decision-making at different scales, using complementary data from remote sensors, local and global geographic databases, and field data. For this, it uses, in an integrated way, cloud processing through Google Earth Engine and free software QGis, SAGA, Python and R. It also specializes in Spatial Data Infrastructures, with emphasis on the design and implementation of multiuser databases, and management of spatial contents, using free software.
