Information

Bio

I am Noemi Mannucci, PhD candidate in the National Doctoral Program in Earth Observation, coordinated by Sapienza University with the University of Florence. My professional journey began at University of Pisa, where I earned my degree in Environmental Sciences.

Current Role

Currently I work on Earth Observation-based approaches for the detection and monitoring of Small Agricultural Reservoirs and their relevance for water management and climate resilience. My research combines remote sensing, geospatial analysis, and machine learning to support more accurate and operational environmental applications.

Areas of Expertise

My expertise lies at the intersection of remote sensing, satellite data analysis, geo-informatics, and deep learning for environmental applications. In particular, I work on EO-based water monitoring, segmentation models for satellite imagery, and the integration of optical and radar data for mapping small and dynamic landscape features.

Vision for the Future

I believe that Earth Observation can help improve the way we respond to drought and water scarcity, especially by providing better information on small and often overlooked water resources such as Small Agricultural Reservoirs. Improving their detection and monitoring can support a better understanding of local water availability and contribute to more informed management and adaptation strategies.

In the future, I hope this work can also support the development of methodologies ready to be applied to new satellite systems such as the upcoming IRIDE constellation, helping to bridge scientific research and operational tools.
