Jesús Muñoz Cádiz is a postdoctoral researcher in the Digitalization and Information Systems Group in the Department of Informatics, and a member of the
Smart Living Lab. He holds a PhD in Architecture, Built Environment and Construction Engineering at the Department of Civil Engineering, Construction and Architecture (
DICEA) at the Polytechnic University of Marche (Italy). From September to December 2023, he was a visiting PhD Student in the
Department of Architecture at the University of the Basque Country (Spain). Earlier in his career, he was involved in several projects related to geographic information Systems (GIS) at the University of Córdoba (Spain) and the
PATRICIA research unit, working with remote sensing techniques such as LiDAR, ground-penetrating radar (GPR), geomagnetic prospection, and aerial photogrammetry.
His research focuses on data structures within the Building Information Modelling (BIM) methodology, including standards and metadata schemas. He has developed a customized workflow for analyzing and managing architectural heritage using Machine Learning techniques in point clouds segmentation and clustering. His work incorporates ontological frameworks to enhance interoperability through digital environments. Additionally, he has expertise at the intersection of construction-phase documentation and modeling (Archaeology of Architecture method) and user experience design related to Roman architectural remains, medieval defensive walls, religious buildings, and Renaissance palaces across Europe.
