The main theme of his scientific career is 'Image processing applied to data production for geographic information systems'. Until 2003, his research was focused on 'Automatic interpretation of scanned maps'. Since 2003, he has mainly worked in the field of photogrammetry.
Miscellany
Explanation of MicMac naming: In French, it's a funny name meaning 'mix-up'; later, a professional interpretation was imagined: 'Multi Image Correspondance, Méthodes Automatiques de Corrélation'. The naming conventions for commands are a good way to keep from taking oneself too seriously.
