Why did you get into engineering?
I like mathematics.
What are your research goals?
The developments of reliable mathematical modelling and quality control procedures for geospatial mapping and navigation applications
What do people not understand about you do?
The mathematical models used in the real world applications are not always realistic and the current quality control procedures are always regisorous.
