Honoured to contribute as part of the working group for the review of MS1759: Geographic Information — Feature Catalogue.
Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to participate in a review workshop held in February 2025, organised under the Department of Standards Malaysia. The session brought together experts and practitioners to refine and strengthen this important national standard.
I hope this small contribution helps support the geospatial community in Malaysia — and benefits the wider public through improved geospatial data practices and interoperability.
Thank you to the organisers and fellow working group members for the meaningful discussions and collaboration.

Recap: Publication Analysing Spatial Pattern
Recap:
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can be effectively used to support business analysis and expansion strategies — including identifying existing outlet patterns and exploring potential locations for new franchises.
This was my old publication in 2023, where I analyzed the spatial distribution patterns of three major fast-food restaurant chains in Malaysia. The study identifies hotspot areas and assesses the probability of opening new franchise locations.
Feel free to explore the paper for more insights and detailed findings. Your thoughts and feedback are most welcome!

Discussion on Geospatial Policies
Last month I was given an opportunity to handle discussions on Geospatial policy in one of the States in Malaysia
Very interesting topics, since policies are one of my sub-niches under SDI or spatial data sharing
Some key points:
– roles and responsibilities
– principles
– guidance
There are many policies in global, regional, national, and state level.
I would love to have further discussion and research on this “boring” sub-niche of SDI in the future
