Biography

Graduated at the Polytechnic of Turin in Architecture, I then obtained a post-graduate diploma from the School of Specialization in Architectural Heritage and Landscape and I am now a PhD student in Urban and Regional Development, in the Topography and Geomatics field.
After working in some architectural and engineering firms, I have collaborated with the Higher Institute for Territorial System and Innovation (SiTI) to monitor some UNESCO sites.
The main research activities, in the field of metric 3D surveying (UAV, terrestrial laser scanner, RTK), are mainly aimed at the development of three-dimensional digital models (HBIM), with their consequent integration in the GIS environment, supporting the conservation, management, and maintenance of cultural heritage. Thanks to the doctoral thesis, I also approached the use of artificial intelligence techniques (Deep learning) for the semantic segmentation of point clouds of immovable cultural assets, thus supporting the future automatic recognition of architectural elements in object-oriented software and speeding up the digital reconstruction process of HBIM models.
During my university years, I also had some experiences abroad, including:

bachelor - LLP / Erasmus program in Turku, Finland (Turku University of Applied Sciences)
master's degree - thesis research in Göteborg, Sweden (Chalmers University of Technology)
doctorate - visiting period in Strasbourg, France (National Institute of Applied Sciences).
