About
Hooman Latifi is an assistant professor at the Dept. of remote sensing of the University of Würzburg. He is also the representative of the working group “Ecology and Environment” of the German region of the International Biometric Society (IBS-DR). His research interests are mainly applied spatial analysis of forest entities (Structure, biodiversity and forest health indicators) by means of airborne (in particular LiDAR) remote sensing. In addition to his research activities, he has been involved in numerous internal and external teaching events on LiDAR remote sensing, open-source image processing software and remote sensing-assisted of forest and environmental management.
