Nitesh Kumar Mourya – Geography- Best Researcher Award

Dr. Nitesh Kumar Mourya  distinguished academic and researcher in the field Geography. He is a highly skilled GIS and Remote Sensing professional proficient in tools such as ArcGIS Desktop and Pro, ERDAS Imagine, Global Mapper, QGIS, and Google Earth Engine, with a proven track record of achieving a 0.97 Kappa accuracy in Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) classification. Holding a master’s degree in Geography and Diploma in GIS and Remote Sensing, he is motivated to pursue a Ph.D. in Physical, Environmental, Urban, Economical, and Population Geography, contributing to cutting-edge research. His keen observation of natural features, coupled with a deep understanding of geomorphic processes, climate change, human and environment interaction studies, rapid environment change, etc., fuels his development of self-hypotheses and testing those, including insights into plate tectonics. Eager to apply his skills and contribute to advancements in geography, he is equally enthusiastic about securing a corporate role in GIS and Remote Sensing, leveraging his expertise to drive innovation and make meaningful contributions in a professional setting. Never Ever Settle, Eagar to learn, perform, and research.
