Prof. Ana Josselinne Alegre Mondragón | Data Science and Analytics | Editorial Board Member

Geospatial Information Sciences Research Center | Mexico

Prof. Ana Josselinne Alegre Mondragón is a distinguished geospatial information sciences researcher whose scholarly contributions advance the understanding of violence dynamics, clandestine graves detection, and geospatial applications for public security and forensic investigations. Her research integrates geographic profiling, spatial statistics, remote sensing, UAV-based photogrammetry, and geointelligence modeling to address critical national challenges, particularly the search for missing persons and the analysis of organized crime patterns. She has authored influential book chapters, peer-reviewed journal articles, and scientific reports published by Springer, Forensic Sciences International, and leading academic institutions in Mexico. Her work includes the development of spectral indices for detecting clandestine graves, multivariate regional analyses of burial sites, geospatial modeling of crime, assessment of soil alterations linked to criminal activities, and advanced methodologies for drone-based terrain morphology assessment. She has actively contributed to high-impact research projects such as Espacio Clandestino, geospatial infrastructures for the Ayotzinapa investigation, and scientific applications supporting national systems for the search of missing persons. Her publications and research tools are widely referenced, shaping new standards for evidence-based forensic search protocols. She has collaborated on cross-disciplinary initiatives involving forensic science, anthropology, criminology, and remote sensing, generating innovative methodologies and academic outputs recognized both nationally and internationally. Her scholarly trajectory demonstrates a sustained commitment to advancing geospatial science for human rights, security analysis, and public policy, positioning her as a leading figure in Mexico’s emerging field of forensic geospatial analytics.
