- Satellite Air Quality Modelling - August 2019 - December 2021- Socotra Humanitarian Information Platform - March 2019 - March 2020- Abu Dhabi Cultural and Heritage Platform for Environment Agency Abu Dhabi (EAD) - April 2019 - December 2019Satellite Air Quality Modelling with European Space Agency (ESA)In collaboration with Kings College London and Imperial College London and the European Space Agency (ESA), This approach integrates space technologies into traditional air quality models. Vehicle inventories are compiled using a deep learning approach applied to satellite imagery providing input into emissions information, with world-leading accuracy. Socotra Nationwide Database and Geoportal as part of the Khalifa Foundation grantManaged countrywide initiated database initiation for full census and land use mapping and business intelligence operating within the co-branded Socotra Humanitarian Information Geoportal. This Geoportal was implemented to ensure all legacy information stored on paper or spreadsheets in summarised in a PostgreSQL structured database. Examples of these features include schools, mosques, hospitals, homes, electricity grids, port developments etc were features made easily accessible via an offline portal. The nation is without access to reliable mobile signal or internet hence all data was stored offline and effectively compressed in a single downloadable app to be stored on local people's mobile devices with Very High-Resolution Satellite Imagery specially collected for this project. This project has been signed off 11th September 2019 on time, within budget and collaboration between team's capabilities. Abu-Dhabi Cultural and Heritage Portal for Abu-Dhabi Environment AgencyManaged survey collection application, with initial ingestion of legacy data, cleaning and display in user friendly portal interface to encourage citizen awareness of Abu-Dhabi’s culture and heritage locations which included 2500+ sites at portal launch.
