I am Zulfa Nur'aini 'Afifah, now a researcher at the Chair of Applied Geoinformatics, Institute of Geography, Faculty of Applied Computer Science, University of Augsburg. In the near future, I will be also doing my doctoral research with Prof. Dr. Jukka M Krisp. My master's program is Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree Program which is hosted by Technische Universität München. (partner universities: Technische Universität Wien, Technische Universität Dresden, and ITC) I hold a degree of BSc Cartography and Remote Sensing from Gadjah Mada University, Indonesia.
Becoming an academia with this interest is challenging yet exciting for me.
Cartography and GIScience have always been my main interests!
I found that the most exciting thing about cartography is the visualisation of geospatial data
and the method of obtaining feedback from map users.
For my doctoral work, I am going to conduct the research about uncertainties visualisation in noise modelling. This research will also invistigate the uncertainties' implications in decision-making.
See my previous publications in my CV below (last updated: September 2024) 😇✨
