Mondini is author or co-author of more than 90 main project reports, 3 reports for the Italian Civil Protection.
B. RESEARCH ACTIVITIES AND LINKS TO PROJECTS AND PUBLICATIONS
• Use of spatial autocorrelation and optimal segmentation analysis for event landslide and flood identification/discovery in multi-temporal SAR amplitude (and optical) imagery. Characterization of the increase of the spatial autocorrelation in measures of changes in SAR images due to event landslides [ap6], [ap5], [ap1], [sp2].
