MARIA DE LA LUZ GIL DOCAMPO

MARIA DE LA LUZ GIL DOCAMPO is a University Professor at the University of Santiago de Compostela, affiliated with the Department of Agroforestry Engineering within the Higher Polytechnic School of Engineering. Her expertise lies in cartographic engineering, geodesy, and photogrammetry, with a strong focus on geospatial technologies for environmental and infrastructure monitoring.

Her research interests center around the application of remote sensing and geomatics in sustainable land management. She applies advanced photogrammetric and cartographic methods to analyze low-traffic road networks in ecologically sensitive areas such as the Galician Ancares hunting reserve, contributing to sustainable planning and conservation efforts.

This work aligns closely with her involvement in strategic research groups focused on bioresource sustainability and integrated civil engineering solutions. Although specific publications are not listed in the current profile, her methodological focus suggests consistent contributions in geospatial analysis, image processing, and sustainable territorial planning.

Research and Affiliations:

• Research Group: CIGEO (Integrated Civil Engineering and Geomatics Group)
