Dr. Simone Pascucci

Degree in Environmental Sciences in 2009 at the University La Tuscia of Viterbo. Fixed-Term Remote sensing expert at the IMAA-CNR Institute of Methodologies for Environmental Analysis of Tito (PZ) since February 2010. Research has been focused on different aspects related to multi and hyperspectral remote sensing applications for environmental, agronomic, marine and urban environment: preprocessing of hyperspectral images; study and characterization of contaminated sites and technological networks through the integration of techniques in situ and remote sensing; analysis of spectral optical properties of urban materials; spectral analysis of roofing materials asbestiform, determination and estimation of sensitivity for a dedicated sensor to control the level of alteration of asbestos cement; retrieval of optical properties (CDOM, chlorophyll a and TSP) of coastal sea water by integrating hyperspectral satellite and in situ measurements; preciosion agriculture and high spatial (UAVs) and spectral resolution mapping (Chl, FAPAR, LAI and yield estimation). He participated in several field, airborne and oceanographic campaigns in charge of measurement and CAL/VAL for satellite and airborne sensors (MIVIS, TASI, PRISMA and CHIME). He has participated in several national (PRIN) and international funded (FP6 and FP7) projects as leader of work packages. He has published several articles in international journals and he is editor and reviewer for different international journals.
