Professional Track Record

Mr. Billah began his career as a Junior Engineer with the Survey & Data division of Institute of Water Modelling in 2022. He was engaged in preparation of survey plans, survey maps & water level hydrograph using water level gauge & sensor data; processing of  Single Beam bathymetric, Multibeam bathymetric, Topographic survey data,  ADCP discharge data, TLS survey data, Feature survey data, Sediment sample data & Water quality sample data; operation of Single Beam Echosounder, Multibeam Echosounder, ADCP, TLS, TS & Spectrophotometer; quality control of survey data through field monitoring & regular accuracy check; contribution to report writing & deliverables. He joined the River Morphology and Engineering Division in 2024. Mr. Billah is currently engaged in the application of advanced mathematical modelling techniques in the field of River Hydro-Morphology. He is adept at geo-spatial analysis software (Arc GIS) and Remote Sensing techniques using Google Earth Engine. He is also proficient in multiple programming languages (Python, JavaScript and VBA).

Training/Membership/Workshop/Seminar/Publication etc.

Mr. Billah has received specialized training in field apparatus deployment, operation and calibration, river modelling using MIKE and HEC-RAS and also geo-spatial analysis. His research interests include water quality parameters, earth systems modelling, sediment transportation, geomorphology, integrated river basin management and climatology. His conference proceedings are listed below:
