Short CV
Othmar Frey (IEEE S'04 -- M'08) received the M.Sc. degree in geomatic engineering (awarded the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) medal for an outstanding master thesis) from the ETH Zurich, Switzerland, in 2002.
Since 2002, he has been with the Remote Sensing Laboratories, University of Zurich, as a Research Associate, where he has worked on a geometric error budget analysis for TerraSAR-X data products and on atmospheric effects in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data until 2003/2004 and where he is currently working in the field of SAR signal processing.
His current research interests include SAR focusing algorithms, in general, and SAR tomography and other advanced SAR imaging modes, in particular. He has developed and implemented a SAR signal-processing software that allows for end-to-end data processing of advanced imaging modes, such as airborne multi-baseline SAR and SAR data acquisitions from nonlinear flight tracks.
Mr. Frey has contributed to invited sessions on SAR tomography at the EUSAR 2008 conference and at the IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposia in 2008 and 2009.
He received the 3rd Place Student Paper Award at the EUSAR 2010 conference in Aachen, Germany, and he was a co-recipient of the Best Paper Award at the ISPRS Workshop Laserscanning and Silvilaser 2007 in Helsinki, Finland.
