Currently, he is an Assistant Professor in the field of Drawing and Representation at the Department of Architecture and Urban Studies, Politecnico di Milano, where he is teaching in the courses of the School of Architecture, Urban Planning, and Construction Engineering. During his academic career, he also graduated from Alta Scuola Politecnica and collaborated with Politecnico di Torino (Italy) and TU Delft (Netherlands). He actively participates in conferences and lectures in Italy and abroad, with scientific publications. In the E-scapes Observatory, based at Politecnico di Milano, Alessandro researches innovative mapping methods for investigating regional and urban scale phenomena. The latest research projects are related to the Mapping of spatial quality of slow tourism routes and the Dynamic mapping of seasonal landscapes through multispectral satellite imagery. The research approach is mainly based on spatial analysis with GIS, which allows to find new relationships and patterns in complex landscapes by combining heterogeneous geospatial data in a multiscalar way. The main research outputs are schemes, diagrams, and thematic maps, which can support decision-makers in defining new territorial strategies. The research activities, particularly, refer to the fragile territories and the marginal areas in between the main cities, where new strategies for regional rebalancing are necessary, also considering the opportunities available by the latest digital technologies.
