Summary
Eduardo Lacerda is a postdoctoral researcher based in Berlin with a decade of experience applying geospatial science, remote sensing, and spatial modelling to environmental and sustainability challenges. He holds a PhD in Geography and combines academic research with applied roles—from coordinating spatial modelling at an international sustainability institute to remote sensing work at Embrapa. Eduardo’s work spans academia and practice, linking satellite-derived analytics, spatial databases, and policy-relevant environmental assessments. Comfortable in interdisciplinary teams, he has moved between Brazilian research labs and international institutions, bringing field-level domain knowledge into computational workflows. Less obvious: his dual background in computer science and geography enables him to bridge technical implementation and geospatial theory, turning complex spatial data into actionable insights. Currently at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, he continues to translate advanced geospatial methods into real-world sustainability impact.
