Federico Gómez

Geoscientist · Geohazards · Remote Sensing · UAS — Medellín, Colombia 🇨🇴


I work at the intersection of Earth sciences, spatial data, and emerging sensing technologies. Currently a researcher at SIATA (Medellín's multi-hazard early warning system) and adjunct professor at Universidad EAFIT, I design early-warning pipelines that fuse field instrumentation, satellite imagery, drone-derived data, and machine learning to monitor and forecast natural hazards in the tropical Andes.


🔬 What I work on

Geohazards & Natural Hazard Modeling

  • Physically-based slope stability models (SHALSTAB, TRIGRS, FLO-2D)
  • Real-time early warning algorithms for landslides and debris flows
  • Rainfall-triggered hazard forecasting under climate change scenarios

Remote Sensing & Earth Observation

  • Multispectral and SAR image processing for land cover and deformation mapping
  • Change detection and anomaly identification with satellite time series
  • Google Earth Engine workflows for large-scale geospatial analysis

UAS / Drone Operations

  • Photogrammetric surveys for DEM generation and volumetric analysis
  • Multispectral and RGB imagery acquisition in difficult terrain
  • Point cloud processing and orthomosaic production

Geospatial Data Science

  • Python-based geospatial pipelines (GeoPandas, Rasterio, GDAL, scikit-learn)
  • GIS analysis and cartographic production (QGIS, ArcGIS Pro)
  • Machine learning for susceptibility mapping and hazard classification

🎓 Education

  • M.Sc. Water Resources Engineering — Universidad Nacional de Colombia (2022)
  • B.Sc. Geological Engineering — Universidad Nacional de Colombia (2017)
