Dr. Aqil Tariq is a Research Associate in the Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Aquaculture at Mississippi State University, USA. His research interests are 3D geoinformation, urban analytics, spatial analysis to examine land use/land cover, geospatial data science, urban planning, crop identification using SAR and optical satellite imagery, agriculture monitoring, forest fire, forest monitoring, forest cover dynamics, spatial statistics, multi-criteria algorithms, ecosystem sustainability, hazards risk reduction, statistical analysis and modeling (Google Earth Engine, HEC-RAS, FlowR, RAMMS, GeoClaw, COSI-Corr, SfM) using Python, R, and MATLAB. He is a member of different international science communities, i.e., Individual Membership of ISPRS, International Water Resources Association, International Association of Geodesy, and the Surveying & Spatial Sciences Institute (SSSI). He has attended more than 30 training workshops from the National Aeronautics and Space Agency (NASA) ARSET program.Dr. Mona S. Ramadan is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography and Urban Sustainability at UAE University. Her research interests include urban sustainability, climate change monitoring, air quality modeling, spatial decision support systems, and land use analysis. With more than 12 peer-reviewed publications indexed in Scopus and active roles as a co-investigator in several funded projects, Dr. Ramadan integrates remote sensing, AI, and MCDA to advance urban and environmental planning aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Her expertise adds considerable value to the editorial vision of this book.
