Gregory Giuliani is a Senior Lecturer at the Institute of Environmental Sciences, Faculty of Sciences, University of Geneva. He also serves as Head of the Digital Earth Unit at GRID-Geneva and is actively involved in numerous international research initiatives including GEO, EARSeL, and the International Society for Digital Earth.
- PhD in Environmental Sciences, University of Geneva (2009–2011)
- Master in Natural Sciences of the Environment, University of Geneva (1998–2001)
- Bachelor in Earth Sciences, University of Geneva (1995–1998)
His research is centered on Land Change Science, particularly land degradation, and the application of Earth Observations for environmental monitoring and sustainable development. He is a key figure in advancing Spatial Data Infrastructures, Digital Earth, and Earth Observation Data Cubes. His work emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches, open and reproducible science, and the integration of Essential Variables for environmental sustainability.
The most recent publications highlight his leadership in the Swiss Data Cube initiative, digital twins for environmental modeling, and the use of machine learning for land cover mapping. His work bridges satellite data, geospatial analytics, and policy support for the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 15 (Life on Land) and SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities).
