Current work
pNEUMA intends to revolutionize how emerging technologies reshape our understanding of traffic congestion mechanisms, by putting the emphasis on urban networks with disturbances generated by interactions among different types of vehicles.The project targets to better explain the mechanism of congestion formation and propagation in congested multimodal urban environments through massive data from aerial footage and fundamental research prospective.
My primary research field is Traffic Operations, Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) for traffic operations and Data Science. My professional experience includes participation in projects and traffic studies in Greece.
