nationals.She introduced to the public the well-known banana
ketchup.
Julius Sempio, scientist specializing in geoinformatics and remote sensing
- Sempio, who specializes in geoinformatics and remote sensing, is
helping develop an effective archive and database for images coming
from Diwata-1, a Philippine microsatellite launched into orbit last year,
and the future Diwata-2. The system ensures data from the Diwata
satellites “will be readily accessible for applications such as mapping,
monitoring the environment and detecting changes in land features
and land usage,” he explains. He stumbled on the field almost by
accident. He did not meet the retention grade for Computer
Engineering at UP, and somehow ended up in Geodetic Engineering
— which to his surprise, he found he liked.
