GOURAMIC – Reconstruction of soil occupation by the automatic classification of multitemporal images (AAP 2018)
Summary: Air contamination by pesticides and the lifelong exposure of populations is now suspected of being at the origin of several diseases including certain types of cancer. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are increasingly being used in epidemiological studies, be it to determine clusters of diseases, compare health and environmental indicators or study the spatial distribution […]

3M’AIR – Mobile citizen measurements and modelling: air quality and heat islands in Lyon (2018)
Summary: The study of air quality and heat islands in urban environments in the context of climate change constitute two complementary issues that lend themselves to a multidisciplinary approach involving the measurement and modelling of phenomena. In effect, local air quality is modified by urban heat islands, as they affect both the characteristics of the […]

POLLUX – Nocturnal light pollution: how extensive is it? What are the effects on biodiversity? What legislative measures need to be taken? (2017)
Summary: Nocturnal artificial light is essentially emitted by urban areas and road infrastructure. This phenomena is constantly increasing and has significant biological consequences. In effect, night-time periods regulate the synthesis of melatonin, the key hormone which synchronises a multitude of physiological processes (metabolism, growth, stress and immunity in the majority of animals). Although effects on […]

RIVIERE – Re-naturing the city, a risk or a factor for social well-being in the eyes of residents and users? Contribution of landscape mediation (2013)
Summary: The re-naturation of cities represents a major preoccupation to the extent that it responds to ecological (biodiversity) and social (well-being) issues. Therefore, aquatic environments (rivers, reservoirs) located within or in contact with cities are the object of increasing appreciation. Nonetheless, this process creates some risks for societies (health risk, flood risk, drowning risk) and […]

PRATIC – Social practices, technical objects and chemical and microbiological contaminants. Socio-technical analysis of contamination processes of the catchment and infiltration basins of the Lyon agglomeration (2013)
Summary: Since the end of the 1990s, calls for a return to “nature” in the city and the rise of environmental concerns are causing a multiplication of developments using and showcasing water. The PRATIC project examines in particular catchment and infiltration basins which have recently increased in number in cities. These structures aim to store […]
