Teresa Gracchi will stay for 6 months in the group RISK at UNIL. Teresa is a joint-PhD student at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering of the University of Florence and at the Faculté des Géosciences et de l’environnement of the University of Lausanne, in the framework of the International Doctorate in Civil and Environmental Engineering program. Her research involves the use of innovative techniques for landslide monitoring, such as wireless sensor networks. In particular, she deals with a low-cost and easy to install system suitable for emergency monitoring, based on ultra-wideband technology. During her stay at UNIL, she will focus in viewshed analysis from LIDAR point cloud, to develop a tool that allows finding the best positions to install a wireless sensor network.
Welcome Teresa and we wish you the best for your project
