Teaching Experiences and Supervision of M.Sc./PhD Thesis and Laboratories:

 

During the past 10 years of teaching, I have given lectures for the following courses:

1)     Principles of Remote Sensing (B.Sc. level)

2)     Computer Programming: C++ and Matlab (B.Sc. level)

3)     Image Processing (B.Sc. level)

4)     Applications of Remote Sensing (B.Sc. level)

5)     Management of Remote Sensing Data (M.Sc. level)

6)     Optimization and its applications in Geomatics Engineering (Ph.D. level)

7)     Spatial and Radiometric Calibration of Remote Sensing Sensor (Ph.D. level)

8)     Fuzzy Logic and Artificial Neural Networks in Remote Sensing (M.Sc. level)

9)     Applications of Remote Sensing in Disaster Management

 

Current year of 2021 I am responsible for the following courses:

1)     Airborne LiDAR Technology and Its applications (JKIP Students- KNTU & Twente University joint program in English)

2)     Airborne LiDAR Technology and Its applications (M.Sc. level)

3)     Terrestrial LiDAR Technology (B.Sc.)

4)     Physics of Remote Sensing (M.Sc.)

 

During the past 10 years, over 40 M.Sc. students are graduated under my supervision of co-supervision and 3 Ph.D. students are graduated. Now I 3 Ph.D. students are under my supervision and I have 3 professors from Sweden, South Aftrica and Japan who become their co-supervisors.

I established the faculty laboratory called Laser Scanners and now a bench mark data is available for public use through its website.

 

Professional Service

 

1)     From 2018 to 2022, I was serving as committee member of the faculty for evaluation and promotion of the academic staff to approve tenured position.

2)     I have reviewed many papers for high quality journals which some of them are Remote Sensing (MDPI), IEEE TGRS, IEEE GRSL, IJRS, PE&RS, ISPRS, RS Letters, The Photogrammetric Record, IEEE JSTAR

3)     Associate Editor of Frontiers in Remote Sensing- Image Analysis and Classification

4)     Editorial Board member of Remote Sensing of Land
