Research Interest
My research involves use of high resolution remotely sensed data, especially LiDAR data, for 3D modelling, visualization and various other applications.I am also using GIS for innovative applications.
I am working in the following specific areas: 3D Laser imaging and LCS measurement, Methodology development for motion correction and error analysis in laser scanning, Propagation modelling using high resolution LiDAR data (flood, sound, GPS signal), Mapping of buildings, specifically urban and those of historical significance, using terrestrial laser, Laser scanning of complex structures, Development of LiDAR simulator-airborne and spaceborne, GIS for optimized land consolidation in agriculture, Landmark based advanced navigation under GIS environment.
