Research Software Engineer

Dr. Fakhereh (Sarah) Alidoost


Sarah is a researcher/analyst in Geomatics and Remote Sensing. Her research interest is the use of earth observation data and geostatistics to describe the interaction between weather, land and water.

She holds a bachelor’s in Geodesy & Geomatics – Surveying Engineering, and a master’s in Remote Sensing from K.N. Toosi University of Technology, Iran. During her master’s studies, she investigated the use of spatial unmixing for image fusion. She completed her PhD in geostatistics and copulas, a relatively new area for integrating weather and land information (Departments of Earth observation science, and Water resource science, the faculty of ITC, University of Twente, the Netherlands).

Sarah has particular skills in programming, system analysis, image/data processing and management. She is interested in geo/statistical methods, fusion techniques, optimization and simulation methods.
