CV Lattes


Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP). Campus de Presidente Prudente. Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia (FCT)  (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal)
Birthplace: Brazil

Bachelor Degrees in Cartographic Engineering (2010, FCT-UNESP); MSc. in Cartographic Sciences (2013, PPGCC, FCT-UNESP, Research Supported by FAPESP); PhD. in Remote Sensing (2020, PPGSR, UFRGS). Professor at the Federal University of Uberlândia (UFU)/IG, Campus Monte Carmelo/MG (since Nov/2014). ---SCIENTIFIC PROFILE---: I have been working in the area of Geodesy, working mainly in the following specialties: estimation theory, reliability theory, quality control, artificial intelligence, computer simulation, geodetic networks, positioning by GNSS satellites, GNSS/Meteorology. With only 25 articles on the Web of Science, I obtained 161 citations and an h index = 8 in these activities. In 2021, I received an Honorable Mention in the CAPES Thesis Award - 2021 Edition, in the area of GEOCIENCES, for the thesis AN EXTENSION TO THE THEORY OF RELIABILITY IN GEODESY. Meanwhile, I had the opportunity to integrate and still integrate research with scientists from Germany and Spain, as well as with Brazilian institutions (UFU, UFPR, IFSC, INPE, UNESP, UEM, IME, Unisinos/VizLab). My research group and I have always focused on developing novel methods and breakthroughs within our areas of expertise, as can be seen in my contributions. I am also a member of the Geodetic quality\integrity modeling, monitoring, and design Joint Study Group (JSG). This group has been established within the Inter-Commission Committee on Theory (ICCT) framework of the International Association of Geodesy (IAG). --- CURRENT AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPERIENCE --- I currently hold the president position of the Structuring Teaching Nucleus (NDE) of the Surveying and Cartographic Engineering (EAC) course at UFU. Acts as a Permanent member of the Graduate Program in Agriculture and Geospatial Information, at UFU, Campus Monte Carmelo/MG. I am also part of the editorial board of the following journals: Revista Brasileira de Cartografia (RBC) and Journal of Surveying Engineering (JSE). In addition to being a reviewer for several important journals within my area of expertise. I have been working on content on Scientific Writing in teaching and extension projects. Since 2017, I have been working on an extension project to publicize the EAC/UFU course. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)
