About your Instructor

I have completed a PhD in Forest Ecology and Conservation from the University of Cambridge, UK. In my PhD I used a combination of remote sensing data such as optical data, LiDAR, aerial imagery and radar data for quantifying the impact of forest cover change on carbon stocks and biodiversity in tropical Asia. I have worked extensively in different parts of tropical Asia- Malaysia, Laos, Cambodia and the Philippines. I used extensive statistical, machine learning and image processing techniques for my research and have an intermediate level proficiency in R and Python programming languages. I am also proficient in the use of GIS softwares like QGIS and ArcGIS and remote sensing tools like ENVI. I have several peer reviewed publications in well-regarded journals to my credit. Details of publications can be found here: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Minerva_Singh In January 2017, I launched Minerva's Data Lab, an endeavor hat seeks to provide information, resources and training relating to machine learning, data science, spatial data analysis, geographic information system (GIS), remote sensing (Landsat, LiDAR, hyperspectral and radar data). I am available for 1-1 consulting, tutoring, training or general discussions about topics relating to R programming language, Python, Matlab, QGIS, ArcGIS and remote sensing tools such as IDRISI and ENVI.
