Dr. Daniele Sampietro

Daniele Sampietro (Ph.D.): GReD BOD member and senior researcher. He received his PhD degree with honours in 2009, with a thesis on the “Inverse gravimetric problem with GOCE data”. From 2009 to 2011 he was postdoctoral researcher at Politecnico di Milano, working on the modelling and inversion of the gravity field to estimate geoid undulations and crustal structure at a regional scale. Since 2011, he has been principal investigator of several research projects found by the European Space Agency focused on the inversion of the gravitational and magnetic fields. From March 2016 to December 2021, he was principal investigator of a project for upstream activities for Eni Spa aiming at developing advanced techniques for the acquisition, processing and inversion of gravity data. He won the AGLC “Licio Cernoboro” award for young researchers in the “Applied Geophysics” session of the 32nd national conference GNGTS. He is author or co-author of about 50 publications peer-reviewed at international level.
