Spending my 3 hours time with final-year BSc Geoinformatics students under my supervision. This mock proposal is not obligated; rather, it is intended to teach students the fundamentals of delivering a proposal defence presentation as well as future presentations (after graduation). This is not a lecturer’s KPI; people say it only adds work. But, regardless of what others say, the important thing is that my students gain new knowledge for future use. And we had “makan-makan” at the end of the session.
I would like to share about our first publication of this year. Its a book chapter in Springer research book.
This chapter discusses on how noise mapping is constructed in 3D for the Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) campus area. It is also the first approach made in UTM to visualize noise impacts in 3D. We use the techniques available in 3D city modeling to obtain the results of this study. More findings can be found in the chapter.
This research is sponsored by UTM research grant. We would like to thank to UTM for giving us the opportunity to conduct this research. Here is the information about the book chapter:
Chapter 18: Three-Dimensional (3D) Noise Pollution Visualization via 3D City Modelling
Book: Application of Remote Sensing and GIS in Natural Resources and Built Infrastructure Management
THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE OF SMART CITY APPLICATIONS 2022
We successfully published six (6) research papers at the International Conference of Smart City Applications 2022, which took place in Morocco. I want to congratulate all the research students in our lab who have worked so diligently on their research that it is now their works being acknowledged and accepted at international level. Your hard work paid off.
Here are the links for the research papers:

Regarding our study findings, we have successfully acquired new Intellectual Properties (IP) that have been granted Copyright status. This intellectual property focuses on the 3D voxelization method for developing wind flow models.
Congratulations to Nurfairunnajiha Ridzuan. The student’s efforts have been acknowledged with accomplishment. It is her first opportunity to work with intellectual property. I intend to educate my students on the application procedures for intellectual property.
We certainly hope that our research lab will generate a more significant number of IPs.
This meeting was postponed from November to December. This is because our research lab is undergoing a major renovation and expansion to meet the needs of new students.
This meeting we introduced 3 new research members namely Syafiq, Husna and Farah. Each showed good progress despite having just started their studies in less than two months.
Hopefully next year more and more interesting research can be produced from our lab. See you next year (IA)!
I had the opportunity to deliver a talk on the use of GIS for the local municipality (Majlis Perbandaran Kulai – MPKu). This training lasts for three days from 5-7 December 2022 and is conducted in UTM.
Wish that my knowledge sharing with the GIS unit at MPKu can be fully utilized. We at the university share our knowledge without relying on any particular vendors or software. It is more about giving the fundamental concept of GISc so that the knowledge can be applied in their daily work.
I’m so delighted that they choose to attend my lecture physically instead of doing it online at their hometown (due to national election day – leave). So, treat them all with doughnuts 🍩 😊
The knowledge you gain is much sweeter in the future than the doughnuts you have it today 😊👌🏻
This is the 11th journal publication in 2022. Based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT2), a Malaysia Smart Cities Stakeholders Adoption Model (MSCSA) was employed as a case study in this research. In-depth interviews with specialists from smart city development agencies were conducted using a mixed-methods research approach. These assessments provide city officials with a mechanism for measuring citizen interest in smart city services and a road map for establishing an efficient smart city plan.
