About me

I received my PhD and MSc degrees in Geomatic Engineering from Yildiz Technical University and my BSc in Geodesy and Photogrammetry Engineering from Karadeniz Technical University, Türkiye. I was a visiting researcher in the Geo-Spatial Analytics Lab at the University of South Florida in the United States (worked with Prof. Barnali Dixon) and in the Department of Earth Observation, Institute of Geography at the Friedrich-Schiller-University of Jena in Germany (worked with Prof. Christiane Schmullius).

Currently, I am working as an assistant professor for the Department of Geomatic Engineering in Artvin Coruh University, Türkiye. Also, I worked as a research assistant at the Department of Geomatic Engineering in Yildiz Technical University.

As an editorial task, I have been serving as an associate editor for the European Journal of Remote Sensing and Revue Internationale de Géomatique. Also, I was one of the guest editors of the special issue entitled "Advances in Remote Sensing for Monitoring and Characterising Vegetation Responses to Changing and Extreme Climatic Conditions" in MDPI Remote Sensing. My main research interests include Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PolSAR) Remote Sensing, Applied Machine Learning and particularly Hyperspectral Data Analysis. Recently, I am working on dimensionality reduction and classification of hyperspectral images.

I'm the member of IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society and International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing. I received the award for Top Reviewers for Geosciences - September 2018 from Publons. I have been voluntarily working for the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society as the Conference & Symposia Liaison.
