Dr Liliia Hebryn-Baidy focuses on advanced remote sensing methods, employing machine learning to process satellite and aerial images for assessing land use/land cover and vegetation changes. Dr Liliia Hebryn-Baidy also analyses land surface temperature variations and urban heat island effects, particularly in the Arctic region, enhancing the understanding of natural and human transformations. Her research is supervised by Professor Gareth Rees in the Research on Polar Landscapes and Remote Sensing group and is supported by The British Academy and the Council for At-Risk Academics.
Dr Hebryn-Baidy earned her PhD in Engineering Sciences from the National Aviation University of Ukraine in 2018. Before the onset of the full-scale war in Ukraine, Dr Liliia Hebryn-Baidy served as an Associate Professor at the Department of Aerospace Geodesy and Land Management at the National Aviation University. During her tenure, she taught courses such as Topography, Remote Sensing, and Photogrammetry, contributing significantly to the academic community.
Since February 2023, she has been a Research Fellow at the Scott Polar Research Institute, Department of Geography, University of Cambridge and Post- Doctoral Affiliate at Christ's College.
