The Geomatics and Ocean Engineering Group (GeoOcean) from the Department of Sciences and Technologies of Water and Environment of University of Cantabria is a young scientific group supported by more than 15 years of scientific and engineering works by their senior members. The PI is Fernando J. Mendez, Full Professor of Coastal Engineering.

During the last few years, our main research lines have been focused on:

1. Development of statistical and numerical models to analyze wave climate, extremes, climate change, and sea level variations.
2. Development of tools for addressing problems of coastal flooding risk, including climate variability.
3. UAV-based coastal monitoring.
4. Forecast systems of coastal flooding (swells and tropical cyclones) based on data mining and metamodels.
