- Built end-to-end Python pipelines to clean, combine, and prepare data from sources, including drone images, satellite data, and sensor records.
- Developed and compared ML models (Random Forest, XGBoost) with statistical models (mixed-effects, GAMs, Bayesian spatiotemporal models) to find patterns across space and time and measure the impact of an intervention.
- Checked and explained model results using SHAP, uncertainty analysis, leave-one-group-out cross-validation, and ablation studies.
- Processed geospatial and satellite imagery with ArcGIS Pro, Google Earth Engine, and WebODM to create useful indicators from raw image data.
- Created visualizations and a dashboard to present results clearly to researchers and stakeholders and support data-driven decisions.
