SHAHID RAFIQUE
@shahidrafique
Junior GIS Engineer specializing in GIS and remote sensing to turn geospatial data into better decisions.
What I'm looking for
I’m a junior GIS engineer who’s passionate about using GIS and remote sensing (RS) to tackle real-world issues. I bring a strong foundation in data analysis and cartography, and I enjoy solving intricate problems with geospatial technologies.
In my current role at Fix COMM Private Limited, I apply geospatial tools and workflows to support decision-making. I’m proficient with ArcGIS, QGIS, and remote sensing methods for extracting meaningful information from geospatial data.
My projects and certificates reflect my focus on practical geospatial outcomes—from LST estimation and vegetation/water index analysis to mangrove and fire-related analysis using Lidar remote sensing techniques. I also worked on “Language Loan Approval Prediction System” using machine learning and explored basic web page development ideas while using GIS.
