Research
In my research, I focus on the analysis of both synthetic and field 2D/3D ground-penetrating radar (GPR) data aquired across sedimentary systems. Typically, such data are interpreted in a manual and thus time-consuming and barely reproducible manner. Hence, the scope of this project is to analyze and classify data attributes in order to interpret the data by generating 2D/3D GPR facies models of sedimentary systems.
