BSc (Hons) GIS graduate from the University of Peradeniya with strong academic and internship experience in GIS, remote sensing, spatial analysis, and thematic mapping, focused on environmental, agricultural, and water resource applications.
Hi! I'm Shayesha Weerakkody, a BSc (Hons) Geographical Information Science (GIS) graduate from the University of Peradeniya. I have strong academic training and hands-on internship experience in spatial analysis, remote sensing, thematic mapping, and geospatial data management.
Through academic research and professional training, I have applied GIS and satellite-based techniques to address real-world challenges in environmental, hydrological, and agricultural domains, with a particular focus on multi-criteria decision analysis and geospatial modelling.
My key interests include agricultural drought analysis, climate-smart agriculture zoning, environmental risk assessment, and sustainable land and water resource management. I am currently seeking an entry-level GIS or trainee position where I can grow professionally and contribute to evidence-based spatial decision-making.
