Short Description: Conducted research on using satellite remote sensing to estimate PM2.5 concentrations in
Lahore, Punjab. By combining Aeronet AOD, MODIS AOD, and ground-based EPD PM2.5 data, I developed and
compared statistical models. The Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model showed the most promising results,
significantly improving estimation accuracy. This work demonstrates my expertise in air quality management and
advanced statistical analysis.

Motivational Letter
Dear Selection Committee,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my deep enthusiasm and interest in pursuing
research on the topic of mapping citizens' perception for sustainability transition. I believe that this
research area holds immense potential to contribute to the field of urban planning and foster
sustainable development in our cities.
Throughout my academic journey, I have developed a strong passion for understanding the dynamics
between cities and their inhabitants. I firmly believe that citizens' perceptions play a crucial role in
shaping sustainable urban environments. Evaluative images, which capture citizens' perspectives of
neighborhoods and places, offer a unique qualitative dataset that can inform urban planning practices
and decision-making processes. By exploring these evaluative images, we can gain valuable insights into
how people relate to their cities, their preferences, and their needs.
The traditional approach of deriving evaluative images through interviews has limitations in terms of
scalability and efficiency. However, recent advancements in technology have opened up new
opportunities for data collection and analysis. For instance, the web-mapping approach proposed by
Barros, Degbelo, and Filomena (2022) allows citizens to document their perceptions using web maps,
providing a more comprehensive and dynamic understanding of citizens' perceptions. I am particularly
excited about the potential of incorporating innovative approaches and technologies, such as mobile
applications, social media analysis, environmental sensors, machine learning, augmented reality, and
collaborative workshops, to enhance the accuracy, scalability, and usability of mapping citizens'
perceptions.
I am drawn to this research topic because I firmly believe in the power of interdisciplinary collaboration.
The integration of citizens' perceptions with the perspectives of urban planners can lead to more
informed and inclusive urban planning practices. By conducting a needs assessment with urban
planners, I aim to understand their data collection requirements and preferences for visualizations. This
collaboration will ensure that the evaluative images generated align with the information urban
planners need for effective decision-making. Moreover, by organizing collaborative workshops, I aim to
facilitate co-design sessions where citizens, urban planners, and stakeholders can collectively design and
visualize sustainable interventions based on the evaluative images. This participatory approach fosters
transparency, collaboration, and co-creation of knowledge, ultimately leading to more impactful and
sustainable policy implications.
I am confident that my academic background and research experience have equipped me with the
necessary skills and knowledge to undertake this research project. My interdisciplinary background in
Geo informatics has provided me with a solid foundation in understanding the complexities of urban
environments and the significance of citizen engagement. Additionally, my experience in geographical
information system has honed my skills in data collection, analysis, and visualization.
I am eager to contribute to the field of sustainable urban planning through this research, as I firmly
believe in the importance of creating livable and sustainable cities for future generations. I am excited
about the potential impact of this research on urban planning practices, policy formulation, and the
creation of sustainable and inclusive urban environments. Moreover, I am eager to collaborate with
experts, stakeholders, and fellow researchers who share a similar passion for sustainable urban
development.
I would be honored and grateful for the opportunity to pursue this research as a PhD student in your
esteemed institution. I am confident that, given the necessary resources and support, I can make
significant contributions to this field of research. I am committed to conducting rigorous and impactful
research, and I am ready to invest the time and effort required to complete a successful research
project.
Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the possibility of working with esteemed
researchers and contributing to the advancement of knowledge in the field of mapping citizens'
perception for sustainability transition. I am available for further discussion or an interview to provide
any additional information or clarify any queries.

Mapping Citizens' Perception for Sustainability Transition: Integrating Innovative Approaches
and Technologies
1. Introduction:
Mapping residents' perceptions is critical for understanding how people interact with their cities and
promoting sustainable urban design practises. Evaluative photographs, which capture residents'
perceptions of neighbourhoods and places, provide significant qualitative data to urban planners.
Traditional tactics entail interviews, but technological improvements have opened up other avenues. The
web-mapping approach allows residents to register their perceptions using online maps, providing
insights into spaciousness, tidiness, naturalness, and other factors. However, including urban planners'
ideas and determining appropriate visualisations are critical. This study intends to bridge the gap by
conducting a needs assessment with urban planners, creating a mobile application prototype, and
experimenting with novel methodologies such as social media analysis, environmental sensors, machine
learning, augmented reality, and collaborative workshops. The research intends to provide practical
advice for sustainable urban planning and policy-making by integrating these factors, improving the
accuracy, scalability, and usability of mapping residents' opinions.
2. Objectives:
 Collaborate with urban planners to develop data collecting needs for sustainable urban planning
and appropriate visualisations for evaluation pictures.
 Create a mobile application that allows users to use their smartphones to take real-time
evaluative photos and perceptions, supporting dynamic and location-specific data collecting.
 Analyse geotagged posts, hashtags, and user-generated material to acquire insights into public
attitude and perceptions using social media data as a source of information.
 Integrate environmental sensors or wearable devices to collect objective data on environmental
parameters such as air quality, noise levels, or temperature, thereby improving understanding of
the aspects that influence citizens' perceptions.
 Machine learning algorithms can be used to automatically analyse and classify evaluative
photographs based on predetermined categories or themes, speeding data analysis and allowing
for effective processing of massive datasets.
 Use augmented reality (AR) technology to visualise citizens' evaluative images and overlay them
into the physical world, providing urban planners and stakeholders with an immersive and
engaging experience.
 Organise co-design workshops in which residents, urban planners, and stakeholders work
together to create and visualise sustainable interventions based on evaluative images, ensuring
democratic decision-making.
 Implement a long-term monitoring and evaluation system to follow changes in citizens' attitudes
over time, allowing you to get insights into the success of sustainability actions.
 To understand the influence of contextual elements and educate context-specific sustainable
transition solutions, compare residents' perspectives across distinct cities with different cultural,

Abstract of Master Thesis
Particulate Matter (PM) concentrations in the atmosphere impairs visibility and renders
bad quality of air. Air quality management and mitigation requires extensive knowledge of
air pollution sources. Fine PM is known to have adverse effects on human health. PM2.5
can cause respiratory and cardiovascular disease after intake through inhalation. For
monitoring of PM 2.5 concentration, Punjab Environmental Protection department (EPD)
has installed more than eight ground stations in Lahore. However, most of these
stations are located in urban area covering only a limited area around these stations. To
overcome such deficiency, satellite remote sensing can be used as an effective tool to
estimate PM 2.5 calculation. Common statistical models have used 10 km aerosol
product of MODIS to develop a relationship between PM2.5 and Aerosol optical depth
(AOD). 3 km aerosol product of MODIS was made available in 2014 enabling PM 2.5
estimation with higher resolution. In this paper various levels of PM 2.5 were defined in
Lahore region by combining Aeronet AOD, MODIS AOD and ground based EPD PM 2.5
for the year of 2018. Firstly, the 3km and 10 km MODIS product was extracted on location
of Aeronet station and both pixel values were validated with Aerosol Robotic Network
AOD (Aeronet AOD) for better estimation. Secondly, two variable method (TVM),
Multiple linear regression (MLR), and Artificial Neural network model were used to
estimate PM 2.5 concentration. Results from ANN model shows significant
improvement in R-square over TVM and MVM models. In MLR model, the 10 km
calibrated AOD model performed well as compared to the model of 3km calibrated AOD
model. In the ANN model, it was observed that the 10km calibrated AOD model did not
perform good as compared to the 3km calibrated AOD model. The R-square from MLR to
ANN increases from (0.75) to (0.84) in 3km calibrated AOD model and (0.76) to (0.79) in
10km calibrated AOD model. For finer resolution and better estimation of PM 2.5, we used
3km MODIS product using the ANN model,which shows good R- square value as
compared with the product of 10km.Keywords—PM, EPD, AOD, TVM, MLR, ANN
