ABIJITH Devanantham

About

As a remote sensing specialist with expertise in Land Use and Land Cover (LULC) change analysis, groundwater potential assessment, and multi-hazard mapping—including floods, landslides, and coastal hazards—I bring a comprehensive understanding of geospatial challenges and solutions. I hold a PhD in multi-hazard mapping using machine learning, with a focus on integrating remote sensing and spatial modeling techniques for disaster risk reduction. My research aims to develop predictive models that support mitigation planning and resilience building. I am passionate about leveraging advanced geospatial analytics to contribute meaningfully to disaster management and environmental sustainability.
