      Cooperation with the TiTuSS (Transport Infrastructure and Urban Spatial Structure: Economic, Social and Environmental Effects) research project. The main focus is on the relationship between transport and urban spatial structure and how it can be better managed to enhance regional and national productivity together with more sustainable and inclusive growth. Development of GIS applications for spatial analysis, in the scope of other projects.

      Final graduation training of Survey Engineering degree. The work that has been developed, was about "Three-dimensional Laser Scanning - Several Applications". With this work, it was intended to explain the evolution and functioning of this technology, taking care to assess their advantages for use in projects of infrastructure, engineering, architecture, industry and conservation of heritage, having been the first academic work of this kind held in Portugal.
