    Special Episode Graduate Scholarship Awardee Pratikshya Regmi

    Pratikshya is originally from Jaljala, a remote village in Nepal. Her journey in geospatial science began with an undergraduate degree in Geomatics Engineering from Kathmandu University, followed by a master’s degree in Geospatial Systems Engineering from Texas A&M University–Corpus Christi. She is currently a PhD candidate in Geospatial Analytics at North Carolina State University. Her research focuses on the geomorphic impacts of Hurricane Helene in western North Carolina, where I use LiDAR, UAV imagery, satellite data, and geospatial modeling to understand terrain change, debris movement, and altered drainage patterns after extreme events. Through her work, she aims to develop geospatial methods and decision-support tools that can help communities, scientists, and emergency managers better prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural disasters.
