My Projects

Developed and delivered diverse projects applying data engineering, machine learning, geospatial analysis, and computer vision, with practical implementations in environmental monitoring, urban planning, and sustainability.

Computer Vision Deep Learning DeepLabV3 ResNet Backbone for Image Segmentation

Applied deep learning models like DeepLabV3 with ResNet50 backbone to extract building footprints from satellite imagery for urban planning.

Geostatistical Modeling and-Environmental Data Analysis

Conducted thorough O3 density study in 5 European countries using EEA data. Analyzed with R Studio: distance calculations, variogram modeling (linear, spherical, Gaussian, exponential), model comparison via cross-validation. Optimal model chosen. Produced kriging maps in SGems.

Geospatial Data Preparation for Deep Learning

A collection of Python scripts for preprocessing and postprocessing geospatial imagery, designed to prepare satellite and aerial data for deep learning models. Includes tools for raster clipping, merging, tiling, CRS adjustment, format conversion, and vectorization of model outputs — bridging Remote Sensing and Computer Vision workflows.

COVID-19 Data Web Scraping and Analysis

Perform web scraping to extract a global COVID-19 dataset from a public Wikipedia page, followed by comprehensive data analysis tasks on the collected data.

Movie Library Desktop Application
