GIS for Cultural Heritage

I worked for around 5 years in GIS for cultural heritage. It allowed me to travel across India. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. To enhance my skills in archaeology I completed the following courses from the National Institute of Advanced Studies.

I have also conducted a workshop in KCHR, Kerala where I taught Remote sensing and GIS basics to students(postgraduate)
