Main fields of research and expertise
Alexandre BOUVET got his PhD in 2009 from the University of Toulouse, France. He has been working on the use of remote sensing data to monitor vegetated areas for environmental applications for over 15 years. He is especially interested in the use of Synthetic Aperture Radar imagery, for applications such as the estimation of Above-Ground Biomass or deforestation monitoring, as well as agricultural applications (rice fields monitoring) and land use mapping.
