Dr. Ron Mahabir is a Lecturer in Urban Analytics and a Fulbright Scholar, specialising in computational approaches that apply data science tools, techniques, and methodologies to analyse spatial patterns, understand complex socio-environmental interactions, and address challenges related to urban planning, environmental management, and social equity. His primary expertise lies in understanding cities, with a particular focus on the drivers of urban change, including the dynamics of urban growth, the impacts of climate change, and the role of technology in shaping sustainable urban futures. His work integrates remote sensing, computer vision, and machine learning to extract insights from spatial and environmental data, with growing interest in the interface between AI and human interaction to support more inclusive and responsive urban decision-making.
