Research Interests

Years of work experience in the industry have taught me that only by truly solving the pain points within the industry can help more ordinary people benefit from remote sensing technology. Currently the rapid processing capacity of massive remote sensing image data is insufficient, and the data use efficiency is not enough since various data collection methods. The pain points also put forward higher requirements on the data storage, processing, analysis and distribution process, which affects the application of remote sensing images in the actual industry to a certain extent. Thus, my research interest focus on migrating advanced technology such as AI technology into remote sensed data fusion and processing to improve the efficiency of data usage, and applied into industrial applications to solve the real environment related problems.
