Dr. Faiza Khebour Allouche is an associate professor at the High Institute of Agronomic Sciences (ISA-CM), Sousse university, since December 2009. She got Ph D degree in 2007,   from the Mirail Toulouse2 University, Toulouse, France.  In the field of  Geography and management-Landscape and Environment.  Her principle background is related to engineering sciences and integrated remote sensing – GIS applications in the field of environment. The practical experience focus in land degradation, land use, soil mapping and environmental studies. She elaborated different research work following the integrated GIS and multiconcept of remote sensing. Dr. Khebour Allouche  current research activities focuses on the application of geomatics to assess and monitor landscape and environment based on integrated GIS-remote sensing. She has different publications, in national and international scientific journals, dealing with the topic of landscape analysis, pointing out indicators of multitemporal land used dynamic and development of integrated management.
