Filippe Lemos Maia Santos

Former metrology technician at National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology (INMETRO), with an emphasis on Environmental Acoustics in the area of ​​airport noise monitoring and urban integration. Filippe Santos received my B.Sc. degree in Maths and Earth?s Sciences with a qualification in remote sensing and geoprocessing and a master?s degree in meteorology, both at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. My research activities have as a central theme the study of remote sensing of surface parameters, focusing on the development and validation of satellite remote sensing algorithms for burned area mapping at a regional scale, in the scope of land cover change and fire dynamics. In my master?s degree activities, I have worked on the come along of a burned area mapping algorithm, applying machine learning techniques. Currently, I am a PhD student in Earth and Space Sciences at ICT - Institute of Earth Sciences of University of Évora.
