Description: 

Francisco Eugenio (M’00-A’00) received the B.S., M.S. and Ph.D. degree from the University of Las Palmas of Gran Canaria (ULPGC), Las Palmas, Spain, in 1986, 1993 and 2000, respectively, both in on Electrical Engineering. He joined the Department of Signal and Communications, ULPGC, in December 1988. From 1998 to December 2000, he was with the Technical University of Catalunya in Barcelona (UPC), Barcelona, Spain, in the image processing group. Since 2003, he is Associate Professor at ULPGC, having served as Associate Dean of the Telecommunication School (EUITT) at ULPGC (1994-1999). Since 2004 he is Dean of the Telecommunication School at ULPGC. He is currently lecturing on the area of remote sensing and radar. From January 2006 he has been elected to the grade IEEE Senior Member. His current research interests include remote sensing image processing, modelling and georeferencing, especially in applied remote sensing in the field of physical oceanography. In these areas, he is author or coauthor of many publications that have appeared as journal papers and proceeding articles. His research is conducted at the Institute of Oceanography and Global Change (ULPGC) and includes multisensor/multitemporal remote sensing image processing and, specially, high resolution multispectral imaging processing of coastal areas.

Research interests: 
  • Remote sensing image pre-processing techniques (radiometric, geometric and atmospheric corrections; cloud detection)
  • Remote sensing image processing techniques (segmentation; feature extraction; motion estimation; classification and image fusion)
  • Remote sensing analysis of data from many sensors and satellites (AVHRR, SeaWIFS, MODIS, MERIS, ATSR, Seviri, SPOT, Landsat, Deimos, Quickscat, Ikonos, Geoeye, Quickbird, Worldview, Aster, etc.)
  • Climate change, marine, costal and land analysis
