Rapid urbanization increases the vulnerability of cities to natural hazards, especially earthquakes, as unplanned growth can aggravate structural risks and strain infrastructure. This research is based on a project -Automatic urbanization monitoring for risk assessment by remote sensing and Copernicus data- which aims to improve the detection of urban growth patterns and identify areas with increased seismic vulnerability. This project-s main goal is to develop and test a prototype for automatic urbanization monit...

This research focuses on the long-term assessment of vegetation quality dynamics in the Spacvan Basin from 1984 to 2023. The objective is to evaluate how specific climatic factors influence vegetation health. The study employed remote sensing techniques, analyzing satellite images from the LANDSAT and Sentinel missions. The Spacvan Basin, covering 43,519 ha, served as the area of interest. Data collection, processing, and analysis were conducted using the Google Earth Engine platform. NDVI values were measured ove...
