Mapping the invisible changes of our planet.

Anara Zainab Profile
GPA 3.81

Beside my academic background, I am a Geospatial Data Scientist specializing in satellite-based hazard mapping and climate-risk analysis.

From predicting crop yields in the Pamirs to modeling glacial lake outbursts, I bridge the gap between complex Earth Observation data and community resilience, focusing on developing EU-scale climate monitoring services.

2023 — 2024

Research Assistant – Environmental Sciences

Under Supervision of Professor Mukesh Singh Boori

Led technical research on crop-yield prediction and eco-environmental monitoring. Processed multi-decadal Landsat and Sentinel datasets to analyze vegetation shifts and environmental degradation in Central Asia.

  • Published two systematic reviews in the IEEE Xplore digital library (ITNT 2024).
  • Conducted comparative analysis of crop phenology models using Remote Sensing indices (NDVI, EVI).
  • Modeled land-use change impacts on local ecological stability.
