Back to original languageAbout Nicolas
Earth Observation, remote sensing, and geospatial analysis scientist and data scientist.
I work on the multi-parameter analysis of surface dynamics by cross-referencing satellite data (radar, optical), geological, climatic, and socio-environmental data to quantify the evolution of complex phenomena and their impacts.
I support insurers, infrastructure managers, and public stakeholders in analyzing and anticipating risks such as clay shrinkage-swelling, land movements, or territorial dynamics related to climate change.
My missions include:
• InSAR analysis and ground deformation
• Multi-source geospatial data integration
• Modeling and data science applied to natural risks
• Production of decision-making indicators and analytical maps
20+ years of international experience in geosciences, remote sensing, and data science, with projects carried out for scientific institutions, startups, and public stakeholders.
