Research Profile

BIOGRAPHY

Iftikhar received the B.S. degree in applied mathematics from Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan, Pakistan, in 2008, and the M.Sc. degree in geodesy and geoinformation science (specialization in remote sensing) from Technical University of Berlin, Germany, in 2011.

He worked on Natura 2000 habitat monitoring in alpine (north of Italy) and non-alpine (west of Berlin) region by using high resolution SAR (TerraSAR-X and COSMO-SkyMed) data under joint collaboration of EURAC Bolzano/Bozen, Italy and Technical University of Berlin, Germany. From July 2011 to December 2011 he was with Technical University of Berlin in the framework of CARE-X project. From January 2012 to June 2012 he worked as researcher at Institute of Applied Remote Sensing, EURAC, Bolzano, Italy.

He is currently working on his Ph.D. thesis and his research interests includes development of remote sensing based vegetation growth estimation models and synthesis of GIS systems and remotely sensed (Optical/SAR) data for the development of yield assessment framework.
