Civil Engineering Faculty Serve as Resource Persons for GIS, Remote Sensing and QGIS Workshop

Two faculty members from the Department of Civil Engineering, Assam Don Bosco University, School of Technology, Dr. Ankur Goswami, Head of the Department, and Dr. Jenni Bhattacharjee, Assistant Professor, acted as Resource Persons for a hands-on workshop on GIS, Remote Sensing and QGIS Applications organized by the Centre of Geoinformatics, Assam Don Bosco University, Azara, Guwahati. The workshop was designed to provide participants with practical exposure to important geospatial tools and techniques used in modern engineering and planning. As per the session plan, Dr. Jenni Bhattacharjee conducted a session on “Introduction to Elements of Geo-Informatics”, which introduced participants to the fundamental concepts of geoinformatics and set the foundation for the technical sessions that followed. The programme also included sessions on GIS and satellite data access, QGIS hands-on practice, raster and vector data processing, UAV applications, network analysis, terrain analysis, simple map layout preparation, and certificate felicitation. The participation of faculty members from the Department of Civil Engineering reflects Assam Don Bosco University’s commitment to promoting practical learning, interdisciplinary knowledge, and skill-based training in emerging areas of civil engineering, geospatial technology, infrastructure planning, environmental studies, and sustainable development.
