CV

A dedicated and accomplished professional with a strong background in geodesy, GNSS technology, and augmented reality (AR). Currently, I am working as an Augmented Reality (AR) Mobile-GIS System Developer at Gam Arak Industrial Company, where I have successfully developed a prototype of a mobile-GIS system with AR functionalities to aid field experts during site visits. My expertise extends to GIS analysis, web development, content management, and team leadership, as evidenced by my roles as a GIS Analyst, Team Leader at RAYMAND GNSS, and Content Manager at Raymand GNSS. Additionally, my academic achievements, including a Master's degree in Surveying Engineering with a focus on geodesy, and notable recognitions such as the Galileo Masters 2021 award, reflect my commitment to excellence in the field. I am fluent in Persian and English.

Education

2019-2022

MEng in Surveying Engineering,Geodesy
K.N.TOOSI UNIVERSITY, Iran, Tehran 

During my Master's program in Geodesy, I successfully completed all theoretical courses with a GPA of 3.77/4, ranking first among my peers. I also defended my thesis titled "Studying multi-path effect in GNSS assisted smartphone precise positioning" with an A+ grade under the supervision of Dr. Mohammad Mahdi Alizadeh Elizeie.
The results of my two-year research on smartphone positioning and accuracy improvement by reducing multipath error were published in two papers titled "DETECTING MULTIPATH EFFECTS ON SMARTPHONE GNSS MEASUREMENTS USING CMCD AND ELEVATION-DEPENDENT SNR SELECTION TECHNIQUE" and "Studying the effects of multi-path error on smartphone positioning using GNSS data". This research also helped our team to be recognized as one of the top teams in the Smartphone Decimeter Challenge (2020) and one of the top ideas in the Galileo Masters competition.

2011-2014

Bachelor in Surveying Engineering

University Of Isfahan, Iran, Isfahan 

During my undergraduate studies, I was introduced to the fundamental concepts of surveying and geodesy, research methods, programming, teamwork, and problem-solving. As I delved deeper into the concepts of geodesy, I discovered a strong passion for this field, particularly satellite-based positioning using GNSS. This led me to pursue a degree in geodesy and ultimately choose my research topic in the field of positioning. I graduated with honors, ranking among the top students in my class.

Accomplishments

June 2021

Galileo Masters 2021

european union agency for the space programme (EUSPA) 

GNSS-ASSISTED SMARTPHONE PRECISE POSITIONING (GASPP)

GASPP is a GNSS positioning solution that can achieve high accuracy in real-time for precise smartphone positioning applications. As more than 70% of smartphone applications use location-based services (LBS), the resolution achieved is of high importance.
The current nominal accuracy of positioning information is 3-5 metres in ideal conditions. In real-life conditions, however, this is reduced to several dozen metres. Using GASPP on smartphones, metre-level accuracy can be achieved. This in turn can improve many LBS applications in different sectors, such as travel and tourism, lane-level mapping and navigation, ubiquitous geo-surveying, precision agriculture, precise augmented reality, and indoor mapping and positioning.
