Three ways into my work
Research & GIS projects
Drone-based hydromorphology mapping, river water-quality assessment, WQI mapping and Earth-observation analysis — with the methods and tools behind each project.
Publications
Six peer-reviewed papers on river and surface-water quality, domestic wastewater and construction-waste management, each linked by DOI.
Technical content & SEO for water companies
Writing and search strategy for water, wastewater and environmental-technology organisations, backed by six years of freelance SEO work.
Featured projects
From drone footage and field surveys to GIS-ready data
AI-Driven River Feature Inventory Agent
Turns drone imagery and video of river corridors into a deduplicated, georeferenced inventory of instream wood for river restoration and flood-risk monitoring.
AI-Supported Hydromorphology Mapping & Habitat Assessment — Erft River
Drone imagery, image annotation and machine learning combined with a field-based habitat assessment, compiled into an interactive ArcGIS dashboard.
Water Quality & Hydrological Assessment of the Bhairab River
Water quality, mass balance and self-purification capacity assessed with statistics, GIS and Google Earth Engine; the Water Quality Index mapped spatially.
