Dr.-Ing. Youness DEHBI: 

Youness Dehbi studied computer science and communication research at the University of Bonn in Germany. After graduating in 2008, he started his career as Research Assistant in the geoinformation group at the Institute of Geodesy and Geoinformation at the University of Bonn, where he is currently teaching and researching in the field of machine learning for 3D city models. Having completed his Ph.D., he is currently responsible for the urban reasoning and analytics field as Senior Researcher. His research focus is both the efficient semantic interpretation of urban environments from dense observations and the probabilistic estimation of 3D city models from sparse noisy data. Dehbi has published a range of scientific research papers including awarded papers. He is also acting as Reviewer for several research journals and Member of various scientific committees.  

De la contraportada

This book explores cutting-edge methods combining geospatial technologies and artificial intelligence related to several fields such as smart farming, urban planning, geology, transportation, and 3D city models. It introduces techniques which range from machine and deep learning to remote sensing for geospatial data analysis.

The book consists of two main parts that include 13 chapters contributed by promising authors. The first part deals with the use of artificial intelligence techniques to improve spatial data analysis, whereas the second part focuses on the use of artificial intelligence with remote sensing in various fields. Throughout the chapters, the interest for the use of artificial intelligence is demonstrated for different geospatial technologies such as aerial imagery, drones, Lidar, satellite remote sensing, and more.

The work in this book is dedicated to the scientific community interested in the coupling of geospatial technologies and artificial intelligence and exploring the synergetic effects of both fields. It offers practitioners and researchers from academia, the industry and government information, experiences and research results about all aspects of specialized and interdisciplinary fields on geospatial intelligence.
