Senior🎓
Top SchoolNishan Biswas is a geoscientist and applied hydrologist with nine years of experience building cloud-native, satellite-driven systems for hydro-climatic disaster monitoring and water resources management. At NASA Goddard (UMBC) he leads development and migration of the LHASA landslide hazard assessment to Google Cloud Platform and Google Earth Engine for operational situational awareness across the Lower Mekong, while training local stakeholders in modern, scalable practices. His PhD work at the University of Washington advanced multimission remote sensing applications for monitoring water resources, improving forecasts of extreme events, and quantifying human impacts on hydrology. Comfortable linking end-to-end models, hydrodynamic simulations, and automated ingestion of satellite and in-situ data, he blends research rigor with production engineering to deliver operational decision-support tools. Notably, he has experience creating interactive web frameworks for model visualization at NASA and a track record of converting research prototypes into cloud-deployed systems used by partner agencies.
