David Zuliani

I graduated in Electronic Engineering at the University of Trieste and obtained a Master's Degree in Management of Research, Innovation and Technology at the Politecnico di Milano. I have been working at OGS for over twenty years, where I deal with monitoring infrastructures, laboratories, technological development and science-diplomacy. Below are some assignments that reflect my professional contribution.

• in charge of the geodetic monitoring infrastructure Friuli Regional Deformation Network (FReDNet), which is part of the North-East Italy Monitoring System (SMINO) included in the National Research Infrastructure Plan (PNIR). FReDNet has been recently upgraded through the PNRR MEET project;
• leading the Central and East European GNSS Node for EPOS (CEGNxEPOS), overseeing the distribution of data and metadata from GNSS satellites using the GLASS system;
• in charge of the cost-effective GNSS monitoring infrastructures of the Cazzaso and Brugnera landslides;
• in charge of the Panarea seismic-geodetic network, being implemented with funding from the PNRR project: Development of ECCSEL - R.I. Italian Facilities: User Access, Services, and Long-Term Sustainability (ECCSELLENT);
• head of the OGS Seismological Calibration Centre, recently updated with a primary calibration system with funds from the PNRR project: Italian Integrated Environmental Research Infrastructures System (ITINERIS);
• Coordinator of the development of LZER0, a cost-effective GNSS device for the public and private sectors.. This technology has been leveraged in the PNRR projects: Multi-Risk Science for Resilient Communities under a Changing Climate (RETURN), Research Infrastructure for Geological Surveys (GeoSciencesIR) and in the Horizon Europe project TRANSFORM2;
• OGS representative in the following consortia and infrastructures:
  • European Plate Observing System (EPOS-IP, EPOS-SP, JRU EPOS Italia);
  • EarthScope Consortium;
  • EUREF Permanent GNSS Network (EPN);
  • International Consortium on Landslides (ICL);
• OGS technical/scientific contact person in collaboration agreements with:
  • National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV);
  • Military Geographic Institute (IGM);
  • Italian Institute for Environmental Protection and Research (ISPRA);
  • Friuli Venezia Giulia and Veneto regions.
