Heartfelt congratulations to my PhD student, Nurfairunnajiha Ridzuan, for acing her UTM PhD viva voce today with minor corrections! Her exceptional work has resulted in an impressive 10 publications and securing 2 copyrights.
She is part of the fast track student program, transitioning directly from BSc to PhD.
Celebrating the End of a Remarkable Research Internship!
I am thrilled to share an incredible 6-month internship journey of Aprillia Rahmi Utami from Institut Teknologi Nasional Malang (ITN Malang), Indonesia. As an intern, Aprillia came on board to UTM with zero knowledge in 3D city modeling, and it fills me with immense pride to witness her growth.
Throughout her tenure, Aprillia displayed determination and an unquenchable thirst for knowledge. She embraced challenges and continuously pushed her boundaries to learn and excel. Her dedication and hard work have yielded good results.
Aprillia has successfully created a stunning 3D LoD4 CityGML model for her Geodesy Building in ITN Malang kampus 1 and even conducted a groundbreaking 3D wind flow simulation for the ITN Malang campus.
Aprillia’s transformation from a novice to a proficient 3D city modeling student is an inspiration. It serves as a powerful reminder that determination knows no bounds when fueled by passion and a hunger for growth.
“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts.” – Winston Churchill
I extend my warmest congratulations on this significant milestone, and I am confident that her future holds nothing but boundless success.

Our lab’s day out. I am happy to invite my MPhil and PhD students for an Iftar session. Sorry for my students who are in their home country, maybe next time we can have this Iftar session again. No academic research discussion today. Only food and chit chat.
Successfully published our research paper in volume 41 for the third edition this year (2023). The interesting part of our study this time is we observe the habits of litter in the community. Quite surprised with the amount of litter we collected within our research area. With the help of geospatial analysis techniques, we can see trends.
However, research is only an instrument for studying the effects of this waste. But the most important thing is the attitude to keep our place clean. Please don’t litter everywhere, guys. We talk about the SDGs, the Sustainable City, the Green Life, etc., but it is useless if there is no right “litter” attitude. It all starts with you (and me).
