The Master in City & Technology’s academic structure is based on IAAC’s innovative, learn-by-doing and design-through-research methodology which focuses on the development of interdisciplinary skills. During the Master in City & Technology students will have the opportunity to be part of a highly international group, including faculty members, researchers, and lecturers, in which they are encouraged to develop collective decision-making processes and materialize their project ideas.
Designing Tools & Methodologies for Investigative Practice
From Afar investigates how geospatial analysis and remote sensing can be used to document and respond to violence, disruption, and environmental instability in the contemporary built and natural environment. The seminar critically examines the political and technological infrastructures through which spatial evidence is produced, combining satellite imagery, data analysis, and machine learning workflows. Through group investigations and public-facing analytical tools, students develop new frameworks to reveal interconnected ecological, social, and spatial dynamics shaping the Anthropocene.

From Afar 2nd Term Salt is Essential Salt is a fundamental element of human and animal physiology. The body cannot produce all the sodium and chloride it needs on its own, so it depends on a constant dietary intake. Sodium and chloride regulate nerve signaling, muscle contractions, fluid balance, and blood pressure, and they are … Read more
Project by: Océane Sreih, Haoying Ma, Chakshu, Renata Castañeda, Zankhna Palmist Who Pays the Price for India’s Solar Transition? India has seen an accelerated transition toward renewable energy, starting on 2010 and today the solar farms represent an extension of aprox 3,156 square kilometres of panels, and infrastructure. Vast landscapes are being transformed in the … Read more
Salt is an essential mineral for humans and animals alike. When consumed, it breaks down into sodium and chloride – elements vital to muscle and nerve function, fluid balance, and the regulation of blood pressure and pH levels. Because sodium is lost through sweat, both humans and animals must replenish it to maintain physiological stability; … Read more
DETECTING SAND MINING USING MULTI-TEMPORAL SATELLITE IMAGERY Introduction Sand is ubiquitous in the modern world. It is the second-most extracted material on Earth after water, driven principally by the global demand for concrete, infrastructure, and urban expansion. Estimates place global sand and gravel extraction at 40–50 billion tonnes per year, a scale that outstrips many … Read more
