RESEARCH INTEREST

My research focuses on understanding physical processes that affect environments such as industrial emissions, landfill management, and urban planning and development. I utilize geospatial technologies such as geographic information systems (GIS), remote sensing (RS), and global positioning systems (GPS), to quantify, analyze, model and understand dynamic change within the industrial zone for sustainability. EDUCATION

2005 – 2011, Ain Shams University Cairo, Egypt

2011, Ph. D. Environmental Engineering, Institute of Graduated Studies and Research. My dissertation research is focused on studying the spatio-temporal relationships between physical and industrial factors affecting air quality in urban areas integration both SCADA/GIS systems. Advisor: M El Raey

1989 – 1993, Alexandria University Alexandria, Egypt

1993, M. Sc. Environmental Technology, Institute of Graduated Studies and Research. Final thesis related to the transportation hazardous loads within urban areas using the multiple aspects of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remotely sensed data (RS) within the industrial zone. The thesis was an analysis of how the models were able to retain the information provided through online software tutorials and computer lab analysis/process impact.

Advisor: M El Raey

1983 – 1988, Alexandria University Alexandria, Egypt

1988, B. Sc. Civil Engineering Dept., Faculty of Engineering Final project related to the complete design of water purification and sewerage collection system using the multiple aspects of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remotely sensed data (RS) within the urban development.
