School of Engineering and Technology, Asian Institute of Technology

2010-2014 (3 credit, 30 lecture hrs. and 45 lab hrs.)

EIA and GIS Applications in Water Resources

Developed and conducted a class aiming to acquire knowledge as well as analysis technique of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and Geographical Information System (GIS) through practical lectures and hands-on exercises on watershed environmental management using the Mekong River basin as a study area. The class of 2012 had become the largest in AIT attended by 57 that resulted in a great shortage of the number of software’s license to be used in the class. Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (Esri) provided GIS software licenses upon request for a donation.

Practical Geodatabase

Designed a practical lecture and provided two regular lectures for graduate students from 2002 to 2006 with participation of over 400 graduate students. The contents of the lectures were summarized into three books and published more than 20,000 copies to date. The books have been used not only as a textbook or a reference book at over 30 classes in various universities but also as a self-education book for working-level at private sectors and local governments in Japan.
