Flood Monitoring through Remote Sensing

Alberto Refice is a Researcher at CNR-ISSIA (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche - Istituto di Studi sui Sistemi Intelligenti per l'Automazione), in Bari, Italy.

His main interests concern advanced processing techniques for remotely sensed data, especially from synthetic aperture radar (SAR). He is involved in several activities and projects on remote sensing data analysis, funded by national and international entities, mainly focused on applications involving monitoring of environmental hazards, geo-hydrological processes, and landscape evolution.

Annarita D’Addabbo is a Researcher at CNR-ISSIA (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche - Istituto di Studi sui Sistemi Intelligenti per l'Automazione), in Bari, Italy.Her research activity is focused on the theoretical and experimental analysis of different classification methodologies, statistical models and machine learning techniques, applied to land cover change detection problems and to the monitoring of natural hazards from remote sensing data. She is involved in national and international projects concerning the development of automatic tools devoted to environmental hazard detection and mapping, including landslides and flood.

Domenico Capolongo is Associate Professor of Physical Geography and Geomorphology at the Earth and Environmental Science department University of Bari, Italy. His studies concern the processes responsible for shaping the Mediterranean landscapes. In particular, he focuses on the spatial and temporal distributions of geomorphological processes at different scales in a high-rate evolving environment. He is involved in development and application of  remote sensing and computer simulation techniques, as tools for qualitative and quantitative insight into geomorphological systems and landscape dynamics. Dr. Capolongo is a Member of the Italian Association of Geomorphology (AIGEO).
