Dr. Philipp Schneider is a senior research scientist at NILU – Norwegian Institute for Air Research. He received his Ph.D. in 2008 from the University of California-Santa Barbara focusing on satellite remote sensing and geospatial data analysis. Subsequently, he held a position as postdoctoral research scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the California Institute of Technology. Philipp has more than 15 years of experience with geospatial data analysis with a particular emphasis on the use of satellite data for various environmental applications. His current research focuses primarily on the use of satellite remote sensing data for applications in atmospheric composition and air quality. He is also involved in the exploitation of low-cost sensors of air quality for various applications including spatial mapping, visualization, uncertainty analysis, and personal exposure estimates.
