Summary

My research interest focuses on Planetary Science, Geoinformatics, and Geophysical data acquisition (both in the field and from remote sensing instruments), processing, and comparative analysis of datasets with different data models (e.g. topography, spectral and visible imagery and radar). I use and develop GIS tools for quantitative spatial analysis in my research activity.

I'm part of Scientific Teams of instruments onboard missions to Mars (ESA's Mars Express and NASA's MRO) and asteroids belt Vesta and Ceres (NASA's Dawn).

Istituto di Astrofisica e Planetologia Spaziali

The Institute for Space Astrophysics and Planetology (IAPS) is an Institute of the National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF). It one of the most important italian institution conducting research in astrophysics. IAPS coordinates the activity of about 200 researchers and is one of the leading actors in the international astrophysical research scene, thanks to the fruitful collaboration with the international space agencies (NASA, ESA, ASI, JAXA, etc) and other national and international institutions.
