Space Geodesy, Gravimetry and Geomathematics


The group consists mainly of 3 staff researchers of IGEO (2 CSIC and 1 UCM), more personal in formation and numerous national and international collaborations that are stable. They are experts in geodesy, gravimetry, geology, statistics and operational research. Its research focuses on: space geodesy, remote sensing and positioning systems, geodetic monitoring of natural and man-made hazards types, mathematical models in geodesy, and determination of crustal structure. It has 9 projects in development (5 national, 1 the EU and 3 from Space Agencies). Its experience has built in the last 10 years in the development of more than 50 research projects (26 national ones, 5 of the EU, 17 of space agencies and 4 international ones), the results has been described in more than 200 publications (108 in SCI journals) and more than 220 presentations at international conferences (being more than 25 invited conferences), with 10 volumes of SCI journals and 10 book edited.
