With a heart full of gratitude, I'm delighted to announce the completion of my BSc in Geoinformatics and Surveying from the University of Uyo. First, I thank God for His grace, protection, and love that saw me through this journey. To my family and friends who supported me every step of the way - thank you for believing in me.

My university experience has been enriched with various leadership opportunities. Starting from my first year in 2018, I served on the NIGS election committee 2018/2019, which gave me my first taste of administrative responsibilities. By my penultimate year, I had grown to become the Secretary General of the Faculty of Environmental Students Association (FESSA) University of Uyo. In this role, I'm proud to have modernized our administrative processes by introducing an automated system for minutes writing and delivery.

One of my most fulfilling experiences was chairing the inaugural Nigerian Institution of Geo-informatics and Surveying (NIGS) Awards committee in my final year 2023/2024. The event was a remarkable success, recognizing excellence among both students and lecturers. We celebrated academic achievements, leadership, sports excellence, and various other talents within our department. Special recognition went to outstanding individuals like Mr. B. D. Nwilag (Lecturer of the Year) and Mr. Okon E. Ubom (Outstanding Mentorship Award), among many other deserving winners. I was voted and awarded the Student philanthropist of the Year, Best dressed male student of the year and the Outstanding Stakeholder of the year.

The pinnacle of my academic journey was completing my final year project on " exploring unmanned aerial vehicle (uav) imagery for object height extraction in the university of uyo annex campus, uyo. This research combined drone technology with traditional surveying methods to measure building heights across our campus. Working with UAV imagery and ground-based measurements, we achieved remarkable accuracy with RMSE values of 0.665 across a 29.81-hectare study area. Our methodology demonstrated the efficiency of integrating modern UAV technology with traditional surveying techniques for precise height measurements.



Technical Proficiencies:

• UAV Operations: DJI Phantom 4 Pro

• Software: PIX4DMapper, ArcGIS Pro, MS Excel

• Equipment: Kolida KTS-462R10LC Total Station, RTK GNSS Receivers

• Data Processing: Point Cloud Generation, DTM/DSM Creation

• Analysis: Statistical Validation, Accuracy Assessment

Through these experiences, I've developed robust skills in UAV operations, spatial data analysis, and GIS applications. More importantly, I've learned the value of teamwork, leadership, and continuous learning in achieving professional excellence.

As I step into the professional world, I'm excited to apply these skills and experiences in meaningful ways. I'm particularly interested in opportunities involving geospatial technology, surveying, and environmental mapping.

🤝 I'm actively seeking opportunities in:

• Geospatial Analysis and Mapping

• UAV Surveying and Photogrammetry

• GIS Project Management

• Environmental Monitoring

• Land Surveying

Let's connect if you're involved in geospatial technology, surveying, or environmental mapping. I'm eager to contribute to innovative projects and continue growing in this dynamic field.
