Work History

Internship Student

Queensland Government Native Title Compensation
Brisabne, QLD
02.2025 - 05.2025
  • Matched and aligned historical mining tenure data with the modern Digital Cadastral Database using ArcGIS Pro, Excel, and Python. Produced a validated spatial dataset and authored a project report supporting Native Title compensation assessments and policy transparency.

Junior Spatial Science Engineer

QingDao SinoHi Marine Technology Co., Ltd.
Qingdao, China
03.2023 - 03.2024
  • Seagrass Ecosystem Monitoring in the Yellow River Estuary (Shandong Environmental Department Project)
    Performed aerial triangulation of UAV imagery for geometric alignment with satellite data, and conducted detailed seagrass distribution interpretation from UAV imagery. Contributed to the preparation of the final ecological monitoring project report.
  • Salt Marsh Change Detection for Blue Carbon Monitoring in Shandong Coastal Ecosystems (Provincial Carbon Sequestration Evaluation Project)
    Conducted remote sensing interpretation of historical satellite imagery using ENVI to delineate temporal changes in salt marsh extent. Results supported site selection for regional blue carbon monitoring and evaluation.
  • Coastline Change Detection and Marine Activity Surveillance in the Estuarine Region of Shandong Province
    Utilized high-resolution satellite and UAV imagery combined with deep learning techniques to detect and analyze historical coastline changes. Investigated potential marine area encroachments to support regulatory decision-making.
