Welcome!
I am an Associate Professor in Data Science with the Laboratory of Geoinformation Science and Remote Sensing at Wageningen University and Research, in the Netherlands.
On my website you will find about my research grants, team, teaching and publications. Check also the new community-driven, open-access journal Socio-Environmental Systems Modelling!
New postdoc position!
I am looking for a postdoctoral researcher to work together with a multidisciplinary team on Machine Learning for a farm digital twin to feed the world! Join me at Wageningen University to investigate Machine Learning for enabling data-driven decisions at a farm level, from yield prediction to fertiliser optimisation! Drop me an email, if interested!

My website
This is my web office! I have developed this habit to totally restructure my website every couple of years, as an excuse to sharpen my web development skills. Nowadays, I am porting my website from Wordpress to Jekyll, while changing hosts, so please be patient!
