Higher Education Commission (HEC) scholar Dr Mobushir Riaz Khan has developed a highly-accurate mapping method based on remote satellite sensing (RS) and geographical information system (GIS) technologies which can show worldwide land use for the production of crops regularly.The method could provide quantities of crops and accurate estimates from space for the future planning of countries, regions and the world at large. Mobushir’s area of research was applied RS and GIS while the title of his thesis was Crops from Space: Improved earth observation capacity to map crop areas and to quantify production. The scholar worked on food security and environmental sustainability (FSES).
