This speech was delivered by Marcello Schiavina at the 13th International Society for Digital Earth (#ISDE) International Lectures themed “Advances on the Global Human Settlement Layer by joint assessment of Earth Observation and Population Survey Data” on November 11, 2024. This event was organized by the International Society for Digital Earth (#ISDE), and supported by the International Research Center of Big Data for Sustainable Development Goals (#CBAS). It is a series of online events which feature invited lectures by well-known international experts in the field of Digital Earth. The event will invite speakers to give lectures every two months. The purpose of the events is to bring international scholars in the relevant research fields of Digital Earth together to exchange academic perspectives, share research results, and disseminate the most cutting-edge and authoritative concept of Digital Earth.

Dr. Marcello Schiavina graduated in Environmental and Land Planning Engineering at Politecnico di Milano and he holds a PhD in #Quantitative Ecology at the University of Parma. From 2008 to 2016, he dedicated his academic research career to study the #population dynamics and the physical transport of #marine biological resources through statistical and mathematical models. The focus of the research was to represent and investigate quantitative physical and biological processes for the management of #fish resources (stock assessment and fishery), especially in the context of Marine Protected Areas. In 2016, he joined the GHSL team at the European Commission Joint Research Centre focusing on human population dynamics at regional and global level. He contributed to the development, implementation and capacity building of the Degree of Urbanisation, the UN recommended methodology for the identification of urban and rural areas for international comparison. Since 2022, he serves the European Commission DG Region as external freelance consultant aiming at studying the development of human #settlements through the production of global and regional population distribution grids and the implementation and improvement of the Degree of Urbanisation.
