Contact Dr Kriti Mukherjee
Background
My area of interest is remote sensing and geospatial data analysis. My work revolves around applications of geographic information science, photogrammetry, image processing, data science, and machine learning tools and techniques to understand and model various environmental changes and extreme events.
Current activities
My research is primarily focused on comprehensively assessing and continuously monitoring both short and long-term transformations in land resources. I have a particular interest in understanding how these resources are affected by climate changes and extremes. Within the realm of cryosphere research, my passion lies in studying high mountain glaciers.
Expanding my expertise, I am delving deeper into understanding geohazards induced by climate, glaciers, and land. This exploration involves investigating the potential threats these hazards pose to the accessibility and utilization of available resources.
As an active member of the Cranfield Land Information System (LandIS) team, I play a significant role in leveraging extensive soil data covering England and Wales. This dataset offers valuable insights into our land resources. Through close collaboration with esteemed organizations, we are collectively seeking solutions to mitigate the impacts of climate change, in alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Recognizing the significance of disseminating knowledge, I am actively engaged as a lead and co-author in the creation of several impactful publications. I extend my sincere gratitude to my collaborators whose support has played a pivotal role in shaping the aims and outcomes of my research.
