I am an Associate Professor in the Biosecurity Program of Kirby Institute, Faculty of Medicine and Health, and in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Engineering. I use GIS to support location-based decision-making. I develop advanced GIS technologies that allow us to improve the way we view, understand, design, plan, manage, analyse, interpret, and extract information such as patterns and trends of big data. I apply GIS to real-world problems and help decision-making in a wide spectrum of humanitarian engineering problems, including red-flagging of epidemics and natural disaster management. I am a national delegate of Commission 3, International Federation of Surveyors (FIG), a national representative of the International Cartographic Association (ICA) Commission on Sensor-driven Mapping, a professional member of International Association of Geodesy (IAG), and a senior member of Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
