Recently, our first-year GeoTech students visited the Center for Advanced Analytics at Fidelidade Insurance Company to explore how GIS and Artificial Intelligence support innovation in the insurance industry. 🌍
We sincerely thank our hosts for their time and inspiring presentations. ✨
Recently, our first-year GeoTech students visited NOVA Cidade – Urban Analytics Lab at NOVA IMS to explore how data-driven analytics support cities and regions. 🌍
During the visit, students were introduced to a range of urban analytics applications and demonstrations, gaining insights into how geospatial data is used in urban and regional contexts. ✨
Recently, our first-year GeoTech students visited Direção-Geral do Território (DGT) to explore how geospatial data supports land management and spatial planning. 🗺️
During the visit, students were introduced to both historical and modern technologies, gaining insights into applications of geodesy, cartography, and web-based geospatial services.
We would like to thank the DGT team for sharing their expertise. ✨

Proud of Muhammad Sanan, our GeoTech Master’s student, for presenting his poster at the GRSG Conference in London! 🌍📡
His work used remote sensing to trace historical channels of the River Ravi, showing that modern housing societies were built on former river paths, reframing flooding as rivers returning to where they once flowed.

Last month, our GeoTech students joined a field activity in the young forest of Oeiras, guided by our faculty. 🌿
Together, we contributed to local sustainability efforts while learning about the role of green spaces and environmental stewardship in urban planning. 🌱✨

More highlights from the GFP Annual Conference 2025 in Budapest! 🇭🇺🌊
Our GeoTech student Ayesha Tariq joined workshops on improving flood forecasts, risk mapping in data-scarce regions, and integrating Earth Observation with local knowledge for resilience planning.
The conference concluded with a visit to the Kvassay Dam, emphasizing the importance of connecting early warnings with community action.

Proud of Francisco Lozada, our GeoTech Master’s student, for representing our cohort at the Global Flood Partnership (GFP) 2025 Conference in Budapest! 🌍🌊
As part of his MSc thesis on flood detection, Francisco realized the global research landscape is far broader than he expected. Being part of a community working toward the same goal broadened his vision, and he hopes his work can contribute meaningfully. 💡🤝

Proud of Taiwo Amodu, our GeoTech master’s student, for continuing his reflections from the State of the Map (SotM) 2025 Conference in Manila! 🌍💪
This time, Taiwo highlighted how open mapping empowers communities across the globe. In the session “Community-Driven Data,” mappers from Tanzania, Mozambique, and Kenya showcased how participatory mapping improves waste management and influences local policy.
