Biography:	Dr. Nobrega (Sal) currently is a Post-Doctoral Research Associate at GRI, where he brings over 12 years of industry and consulting experience in Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing as well as extensive research background in geotechnologies for transportation and infrastructure planning. Sal has significant interest in the application of high resolution and multi-source data for infrastructure design, modeling, and monitoring of constructed infrastructure and its context to the built and natural environment. He holds degree in Cartographic Engineering (Sao Paulo State University-Brazil, 1992), Masters and PhD in Transportation Engineering (University of Sao Paulo-Brazil, 2002 and 2007, respectively). He is an active reviewer of Transportation Research Board Journal, International Journal of Geographic Information Sciences, Brazilian Geodetic Sciences and Springer Berlin Heigelberg Ed.
Research Interest:	- Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing, and Digital Image Processing - GIS, 3D city model - Transportation Planning - Urban Growth: time-serie image analysis, quantification and predicting methods
Hobbies:	My family, bicycle rides, scuba diving and brazilian BBQ
