Nicolas Longepe

Dr Nicolas Longepe received the M.Eng. in electronics and communication systems and the M.S. degree in electronics from the National Institute for the Applied Sciences, France, both in 2005. Then, he received the PhD degree from the University of Rennes I, France, in 2008. From 2007 to 2010, he was with the Earth Observation Research Center of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), Japan. From 2010 to 2020, he worked at CLS, France, as a research engineer in the Radar Application Division. Since September 2020, he is now with Phi-lab Explore Office at ESA/ESRIN, Italy. 
 
His main scientific interests include (EO) SAR remote sensing and digital technologies such as Machine (Deep) Learning. He has been working on the development of innovative SAR-based applications for environmental and natural resource management (ocean, mangrove, land and forest cover, soil moisture, snow cover, permafrost) and for maritime security (oil spill, sea ice, iceberg, and ship detection/tracking). At the Phi-lab Explore Office, he is particularly involved in the development of innovative EO missions (e.g. PhiSat-like) where Artificial Intelligence is directly deployed at the edge (on the spacecraft).
