Geomatics

Acquisition, development, description, analysis and management of metric and thematic data, related to the Earth's surface, or to portions of it

Geomatics research activities are dedicated to

a) the realization and the analysis of GNSS permanent stations networks for real-time positioning and for the definition of global and local reference frames

b) the development of instruments and methods for monitoring movements and deformations of the soil and structures and for cultural heritage preservation

c) update topographical maps and of topographical DB

d) the surveying of trajectories and infrastructures, the mobile mapping, the production of digital terrain models and surfaces, the production and the management of multidimensional, multi-temporal geographical information.

Problem approaches are both theoretical and experimental, with special emphasis on metrics and statistical validation of related results.
