Ivan Montiel Martínez is a PhD candidate in the Applied Physics to Science and Technology Program, where his research focuses on digital processing of seismic signals, the design and optimization of data acquisition and monitoring systems, site effects analysis, and the development of methodologies for earthquake forecasting and early warning. His work is carried out within the Engineering and Seismic Risk (GIRS) research group at the University of Alicante.

In parallel, he works as a Technologist at SISCOVA (Seismic Network of the Valencian Community), contributing to projects aimed at seismic monitoring and risk mitigation. His professional activity combines scientific instrumentation, data acquisition and transmission, telemetry, IoT systems, and advanced signal processing applied to geophysical and environmental monitoring.

He holds a Master’s Degree in Telecommunication Engineering from the Polytechnic School of the University of Alicante (21/07/2025) and a Bachelor’s Degree in Sound and Image Engineering in Telecommunications from the University of Alicante (24/11/2023). His academic background integrates electronics, telecommunications, and applied physics to develop advanced technological solutions for monitoring systems and natural hazard assessment.

He is particularly motivated by multidisciplinary environments where engineering, applied physics, and technological innovation converge to create tools that support risk management and civil protection. His areas of interest include geophysical and geochemical monitoring, environmental sensors and IoT systems, data analysis and signal processing, acquisition and telemetry systems (SeedLink, ThingsBoard, Weewx…), and engineering applied to seismic risk.
