ESRI YOUNG SCHOLAR AWARD 2023

Feeling incredibly honored to be selected as a juror for the ESRI Young Scholar Award 2023! I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to the organizer ESRI Malaysia for entrusting me with this responsibility. It was truly inspiring to review the outstanding work of so many talented young scholars. Also, I couldn’t agree more with ESRI’s mission to support local young scholars. It’s important to nurture the next generation of spatial thinkers, and I’m proud to be a part of an organization initiatives that values that. Let’s continue to support and uplift our local GIS scholars!

PUBLISHED AND WE GOT IT OPEN ACCESS (FOR FREE)!

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).

Title: Within cluster pattern identification: A new approach for optimizing recycle point distribution to support policy implementation on waste management in Malaysia.

UTM MICRO-CREDENTIAL (GIS FOR LOCAL AUTHORITIES)

I am delighted to announce our latest course, Geographic Information System (GIS) for Local Authorities.

GIS is a geographic information system, which is an important part of Geo-spatial technology. It has wide applications in local authorities areas.

You are expected to learn the basic knowledge of GIS and the basics of GIS implementation in local authorities. Participants can also put their newfound knowledge to use right away by implementing GIS applications in local authorities.

If you are interested to join the course, register here:

MOCK PROPOSAL DEFENSE

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.

 

SPRINGER BOOK CHAPTER 2023

SPRINGER BOOK CHAPTER 2023

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:

GIS TRAINING FOR LOCAL MUNICIPALITY – MAJLIS PERBANDARAN KULAI (MPKu)

GIS TRAINING FOR LOCAL MUNICIPALITY

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.
