ACADEMIC PROJECT
Title : Development of a Spatial Tool-Kit for eSagu (FYP, 2007)
Duration : 11/06-11/07
Synopsis : The project dealt with developing a GIS based application using map server for eSagu. Points gathered via GPS machine were layered and displayed on a web browser. It involved recognising and developing three layers for a village: Farms, Landmarks and Boundaries. A GUI in VB.net was developed to match the points collected through the GPS machine to the eSagu database. Using PHP MapScript, these different points are layered and displayed to the agricultural experts. It also involved providing a visualization of the whole farm to the experts who can deliver better advice taking this additional parameter into account.
Title : Mining Strengths and Weaknesses of a Chess Player
Duration : Jul’06-Oct’06
Synopsis : The project aimed at working on a set of 12,000 chess games, wherein the problem was to mine interesting hypothesis from this raw data. The data was in XML format. It included cleaning the XML files, then parsing XML files using DOT NET and converting them to SQL format and comma separated format (Weka-a data mining toolkit Format).
Title : Improving the MIS Standard
Duration : Apr’06-May’06
Organisation : Standard Chartered, Bangalore
Synopsis : The project was based on testing and optimising queries related to MIS.
Title : Improving Language Translator
Duration : July’05-Nov’05
