Skills

🌍 Spatial Analysis & Remote Sensing

  1. 🗺️Street Network Analysis
    - Analyzed street patterns and assessed street forms that influence surface temperature.
    - Analyzed connectivity and pedestrian accessibility, identifying key areas.
    - Identified urban functionality through the relationship between streets and buildings.
    - Visualized street orientation and street geometry in ancient and hesitant areas.
    - Addressed pedestrian accessibility issues due to inadequate crossings.

  2. 🌡️ Climate & Natural Hazard Analysis
    - Visualized Land Surface Temperature (LST) and improved the scaling of multiple observation maps.
    - Visualized air pollution to identify environmental risks.
    - Visualized flood vulnerability to evaluate risks and assist in disaster preparedness.

  3. 🏙️ Urban & GeoSpatial Data Science
    - Applied NDVI, NDBI, and land cover classification to assess land use and environmental health.
    - Predicted land use patterns using deep learning and machine learning techniques.
    - Developed 3D models to visualize building density and infrastructure, providing insights into walkability and vehicular access.
    - Conducted a comprehensive site selection analysis for residential construction, considering critical factors such as elevation, slope, proximity to urban areas, roads, power network, and rivers; applied a weighted binary comparison matrix to identify and select the most suitable sites for development.
    - Visualized the spread of COVID-19 in various regions of Iran over several weeks.

  4. 🚗 Agent-Based Modeling
    - Developed models for traffic flow.
    - Created flood simulations to assess evacuation strategies during floods.

📊 Data Science

  1. 🤖 Machine Learning & Forecasting
    - Built and applied time series models to improve forecasting accuracy with a global scale dataset.
    - Enhanced regression time series predictions using Holt-Winters’ multiplicative smoothing.
    - Improved ARIMA time series predictions by incorporating external variables.

  2. 💾 Big Data Management
    - Managed and predicted outcomes using real-world datasets with numerous columns and limited rows.
    - Preprocessed, cleaned, and handled large datasets, ensuring data integrity for analysis.
    - Identified and analyzed interconnections across diverse data types.
    - Developed optimal strategies for forecasting large datasets, addressing real-world challenges like missing data and inconsistencies.
