I am an oceanography graduate specializing in geospatial science, spatial modelling, and environmental data analysis. My work applies GIS, remote sensing, and computational techniques to examine urban and coastal systems, with a focus on flood risk assessment and climate-related hazards. Using tools such as ArcGIS, Google Earth Engine, Python, and R, I develop data-driven models and spatial analyses that translate complex environmental data into actionable insights. I am particularly interested in integrating machine learning and multi-criteria analysis to support resilient urban planning and sustainable environmental management. My long-term goal is to pursue a PhD in geospatial and environmental systems and contribute to interdisciplinary research that bridges science, technology, and policy.

Research Experience
Integrated Modelling of Urban Flood Risk in Chattogram: Application of TOPSIS, Machine Learning and Spatial Analysis Approaches
Masters' Thesis | Supervisor: Dr Md Alamgir Kabir | Co-Supervisor: Abu Bokkar Siddique | Dec 2025
Summary
My master’s thesis focuses on developing an integrated framework to evaluate urban flood risk in Chattogram, one of Bangladesh’s most climate-vulnerable coastal cities. This research combines multi-criteria decision analysis (TOPSIS) with machine learning and spatial analysis to identify high-risk zones and the key environmental and socio-economic factors driving flood vulnerability.
Spatial and Temporal Variability of PAR, Kd490, and SST in the Bangladesh EEZ (2016–2022)
Undergraduate Research Project | Supervisor: Abu Bokkar Siddique | Dec 2023
Summary
This research investigates how Photosynthetically Available Radiation (PAR), Diffuse Attenuation Coefficient (Kd490), and Sea Surface Temperature (SST) vary both spatially and temporally in the Bangladesh Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) from 2016 to 2022. Using satellite-derived data (MODIS-Aqua) processed in SeaDAS and ArcGIS, the study analyzes monthly and annual trends for each parameter. The aim is to elucidate how these physical factors impact marine ecosystems in the Bay of Bengal and to provide insights essential for sustainable management in the face of climate change.
Growth, Observation, and Identification of Indigenous Marine Phytoplankton of the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh
Bangladesh Fisheries Research Institute (BFRI), Marine Fisheries and Technology Station, Cox's Bazar
Supervisor: Zahidul Islam | Mar 2025
Summary
This internship provided a comprehensive overview of a study focused on marine phytoplankton indigenous to the Bay of Bengal. The research encompassed the culture, growth observation, isolation, and identification of these microscopic organisms. The findings contribute meaningfully to enhancing marine biodiversity assessments and supporting effective management strategies for fisheries resources in the region.
Quantitative Analysis of Annual Chlorophyll-a and Sea Surface Temperature Fluctuations in the Bay of Bengal
Mini Project under “Remote Sensing and Satellite Oceanography” coursework | Supervisor: Dr. Subrata Sarker | Jun 2023
Summary
This research analyzes the spatial and temporal patterns of Chlorophyll-a concentration and Sea Surface Temperature (SST) in the Bay of Bengal using monthly satellite data from January to December 2020. Data were sourced from the NASA Ocean Color Web and processed using SNAP and ArcMap software. Specific coastal regions near Bangladesh were selected for detailed comparison, while regional and seasonal variability across the Bay was mapped and quantified. The study aimed to enrich understanding of marine ecological dynamics and climate processes in the Bay of Bengal, providing valuable data for marine research and management.
