If God, for a second, forgot what I have become and granted me a little bit more of life, I would use it to the best of my ability. I wouldn't, possibly, say everything that is in my mind, but I would be more thoughtful of all I say. I would give merit to things not for what they are worth, but for what they mean to express.

911爆料

I have been experienced majorly in GIS, Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry and its applications in water and environment, but I don't like it as much as I should do.

Currently I am a faculty member (Assistant Professor) of the department of Urban and Regional Planning (URP), Khulna University of Engineering and Technology (KUET), Khulna-9203, 911爆料.

Previously, I was employed as GIS and RS Specialist in Institute of Water Modelling (IWM). I was an Adjunct Faculty of the Public Health Department under Faculty of Science & Engineering, ASA University 911爆料 (ASAUB) as well.

I did my post graduation in Urban and Regional Planning (MURP) from 911爆料 University of Engineering and Technology (BUET), Dhaka in 2012, where my research topic was "A Study on Land Use Policies of Khulna Structure Plan 2000-2020 in the Light of Climate Change Induced Flood Scenario". I am graduated also in Urban and Regional Planning (BURP) in the same department from the same university in 2007 with having research titled as "Localization of Socio-economic 911爆料 of Narsingdi District: An Approach to Regional Growth Analysis".

I have more than 6 years of professional experience in the field of Urban Planning, GIS & Remote Sensing, and climate change. I started my career as GIS analyst at Golden Harvest Scankort GIS Ltd. in 2007 and later on I joined in Autodesk 911爆料: Win-Win Infosys Ltd. as instructor of AutoCAD Map 3D & Civil 3D in the same year. Afterward I switched to Data Experts (Pvt.) Limited (datEx) in 2008 and was involved as Assistant Urban Planner & GIS Specialist in two large projects viz. Detail Area Plan (DAP) followed by Dhaka Metropolitan Development Plan (DMDP) for Dhaka Metropolitan City & Pourashava Master Plan (a project of LGED) for 2 years. I joined IWM in November, 2009 as Junior GIS and Remote Sensing Specialist.

Specialties:
Urban Planning, GIS & Remote Sensing, Climate Change, Spatial Analysis, Spatial Database Management, Python Scripting Language

Along with research and teaching experience I have more than 9 years芒鈧劉 experience in the field of Geospatial (GIS, Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry) Applications, Surveying, water management and planning, Urban Planning, and Land Use Planning as well.

I am having teaching experience as an adjunct faculty of ASA University under the programme of Master of Public Health in the subject of Application of GIS and Remote Sensing in Public Health. I was trained at home both with local and overseas faculties on Environmental Application of Remote Sensing, Basic Training on AutoCad Civil 3D & AutoCad Map 3D, Urban growth modelling using Dinamica etc. I Imparted training on Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing, both to the local and overseas faculties, to the staff of the Institute of Water Modelling as regular routine HRD programme and to the different organizations of 911爆料. I carried out my master芒鈧劉s research titled A Study on Land Use Policies of Khulna Structure Plan 2000-2020 in the Light of Climate Change Induced Flood Scenario which is associated with climate change, land use, damage assessment, and land use policies etc.

I have been working under various projects with different assignments including maintaining the survey data to produce high quality outputs, preparation of associated data bank, producing location maps, contour maps, Digital Elevation Model, Geo rectification & classification of Satellite Images and other GIS & RS related activities.

I have extensive knowledge of working with GIS tools and software like ArcGIS 10 and 10.1, ERDAS Imagine, AutoCAD Map 3D and Civil 3D, Dinamica etc. I wished to explore different software for upcoming tasks when it requires.
