@jyotsnayadav
Passionate GIS specialist focused on environmental mapping and analysis.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated GIS specialist with a strong focus on remote sensing and environmental mapping. My academic journey at University College London, where I am pursuing an MSc in Remote Sensing and Environmental Mapping, has equipped me with the skills to tackle environmental challenges through spatial analysis and innovative data-driven solutions. I have a solid foundation in QGIS, ArcGIS, and Python, which I utilize to create impactful visualizations and conduct thorough analyses.
Throughout my research experiences, I have worked on various projects, including creating land-use and land-cover maps and assessing environmental pollution in urban areas. My internship at the Earth 5 R Community allowed me to independently research climate change impacts, while my role at the DS Kothari Research Centre involved analyzing human activities' effects on the environment using digital elevation models. I am committed to leveraging my skills to contribute to sustainable planning and scientific research.
