About
I'm a 3rd-year BSc student in Geology and Mining at the University of Barishal, Bangladesh, with research interests in geomorphology, hydrogeology, and the application of geospatial tools to earth science problems.
During my undergraduate studies I contributed to two peer-reviewed publications indexed on ScienceDirect - one examining geomorphic index alterations in a coastal river system in Bangladesh, and another on hydrogeochemical characterisation of groundwater in coastal Bangladesh. My contributions involved geospatial figure preparation and graphical data visualisation, for which I was acknowledged by name in both papers. Working inside active research teams at this stage has given me a direct look at how field data becomes published scientific work.
Alongside my academic work, I built and operated a radio astronomy telescope that successfully detected the 21 cm Hydrogen Line emission of the Milky Way - an independent project spanning hardware construction, signal processing, and observational data interpretation. I've also developed several open-access geoscience tools, including a QFL Ternary Diagram Builder and Lithora, a web application for geochemical index calculations and data visualisation, built in Python.
I work with ArcGIS for spatial analysis and GIS mapping, and Python for data processing and application development - most recently learning PyVista and GemPy for 3D geological modelling and visualisation. I serve as IT Coordinator at the University of Barishal Geological Society and as a Regional Volunteer at Durbin, an astronomical society focused on public science outreach and community engagement.

Radio Astronomy Telescope
A self-built radio telescope that detected the 21 cm Hydrogen Line of the Milky Way โ spanning hardware construction, signal processing, and data interpretation.
๐ก Media coverageQFL Ternary Builder
A tool for creating QFL ternary diagrams, built with Anvil and Python. Its free-tier hosting has been retired, so the live link is currently down.

A Streamlit app for building complex geochemical plots. It's live, but sits on a free tier โ the first load after a while asleep can take 20โ30 seconds to spin up.
๐ Launch appLitholab
A web app for building the Chemical Index of Alteration (CIA), rainfall plotting, and more. Temporarily down.

Outreach, Events & Community Work
Planetary Parade Observation Camp
As Durbin's regional volunteer, ran public telescope outreach sessions with the Barishal University Physics Club, teaching local students to operate Unistellar and reflecting-mirror telescopes. Sessions included live observation and imaging of the Orion Nebula, Jupiter and its four Galilean moons, Mars, and Saturn โ bringing hands-on astronomy to non-specialist audiences.
Zoom the Earth 2.0
Arranged by UBGS, YouthMappers BU, and EAGE-BU. Provided IT support, designed promotional materials, and coordinated event-day logistics for this multi-organisational geoscience outreach programme. YouthMappers BU is affiliated with the international YouthMappers network.
Geology Night 2023
Annual cultural programme of the Department of Geology and Mining, University of Barishal. Managed technical production, stage lighting, audio-visual systems, and live media operation for the event.
