About

Tiberio Fiaschi is pioneering the integration of robotics into ecological monitoring, with a focus on European forest habitats. His research centers on developing and deploying quadrupedal robots—such as the ANYmal C—equipped with LiDAR and cameras to conduct standardized, repeatable field surveys of Annex I habitats under the EU Habitats Directive. Fiaschi’s major contributions include demonstrating that robotically-mounted mobile laser scanning (RMLS) can capture fine-scale structural data essential for assessing conservation status, a task traditionally reliant on manual, subjective methods. His work has produced novel datasets, including one from the EU habitat 9210* in the Tuscan Apennines, which supports plant detection and structural analysis. With papers accumulating over 27 citations in just two years, his 2024 study “One small step for a robot…” has already garnered 10 citations, signaling growing recognition. Fiaschi’s robotic-assisted framework promises to transform how EU member states fulfill their reporting obligations, offering a scalable, objective tool for habitat monitoring. His achievements mark a significant leap forward in applying robotics to conservation science.
