Executive Summary
I specialize in remote sensing, digital soil mapping, agricultural engineering, and environmental soil physics, with a strong focus on leveraging Google Earth Engine (GEE) for large-scale satellite data processing, time-series analysis, and near-real-time agricultural and environmental monitoring. My research spans mapping paddy rice extent and cropping patterns, mapping peatlands for carbon stock assessment, and modeling soil hydraulic properties. I have advanced expertise in integrating multi-sensor satellite datasets, including Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 imagery, to develop automated workflows, cloud-based geospatial analytics, and interactive mapping applications. In addition, I am highly proficient in R for statistical analysis, spatial modeling, and data visualization, with extensive experience in geostatistics, kriging, phenological analysis, and advanced machine learning to tackle complex environmental and agricultural challenges.
