Minho Kim

Minho Kim

Ph.D. Student - Landscape Architecture & Environmental Planning
Research Interests/Specializations

Remote sensing, GIS, geospatial data science, machine learning, computer vision, environmental planning, fire spread modeling, natural hazards

Degrees

MS Civil and Environmental Engineering, Seoul National University

BS Civil and Environmental Engineering, Seoul National University

Biography

Minho Kim has a background is in Civil and Environmental Engineering with a focus on remote sensing and GIS. He has a broad interest in remote sensing and GIS applications such as urban remote sensing, land cover mapping, GIScience, image fusion, renewable energy forecasting, and deep learning for sustainable development of cities and the environment. Previous research works include wildfire burn assessment, high resolution land cover classification, spatiotemporal fusion of thermal images, solar power forecasting, and local climate zone classification. His current research focuses on mapping vegetation fuel in the wildland urban interface and identifying wildfire risks. He also researches fire spread models using machine learning for wildfire simulations.
