👋 Hi, I’m April, a map-maker and environmentalist. Welcome to my Mapfolio, let me tell you the story how I decide to take a step in spatial data scientist and environmentalist path!
Field of Interests
Take a glimpse of what I have been doing in the professional field.
Geoinformatics
This field is my background of study, which make me decided to learn more about earth modelling. From here, I elaborate my research into practical actions.
Hydrologic Modelling
When we talk about plastic waste in the river, hydrologic condition must be included. Here I learnt a bit under the river analysis system to understand the flow.
Marine Plastic
I joined the special Master’s program of ‘Marine Plastics Abatement’ in Thailand in 2020. This is the stepping stone of the professional program that I involve until now.
Remote Sensing
I indulge more in earth observation and space techs for do mapping analysis and visualizing information related to the environment study.
Waste Management
I take professional involvement in waste management field and initiated it with enrolling in Solid Waste Institute for Sustainability’s short course in TX, USA.
Peer-reviewed
My selected publications are mostly related to the plastic waste management studies and utilization of spatial mapping and modelling. The publications are published from 2020.
This scientific paper has been published and peer reviewed under Scientific Reports, focusing on integrating Material Flow Analysis (MFA) with GIS analysis for plastic waste leakage.
Peer-reviewed publication about plastic disposal along the longest coastline in the world.
A story published for plastic leakage in Mekong Region.
How the decision in Hydrological data approach can effect plastic pollution.
A StoryMap defines the know-how plastic can be modelled in the city-level.
More Stories
Some participations and event I have been approached for sharing my works and ideas to others, whether it’s for raising awareness, presenting know-how, or discussing with different perspectives. Take a look to some examples of my articles and media below here.
