Held at Burja Hall of the department, the event brought together faculty members and students to explore advanced techniques in data-driven urban infrastructure management. The seminar primarily focused on the transformative role of spatial and mobility metrics—specifically human and vehicle movement data—in shaping modern cities. Attendees gained insights into how these data streams are leveraged to optimize urban planning, refine road and traffic management, strengthen disaster response systems, and improve long-term infrastructure planning. Global Experts Share Key Insights The program featured Prof. Yoshihide Sekimoto, the Director of the Center for Spatial Information Science at the University of Tokyo, as the principal resource person. Sharing cutting-edge global methodologies, Prof. Sekimoto highlighted the immense potential of spatial data analysis in resolving complex municipal challenges. The academic exchange was further enriched by technical contributions from Ms. Haruka Anzai and Mr. Hayasa Ishimoto, researchers from the University of Tokyo, who shared their academic insights alongside the visiting professor. Strengthening Academic Partnerships The seminar concluded with a formal closing ceremony where Asst. Prof. Dr. Ram Krishna Regmi, Head of the Department of Civil Engineering, presented a token of love to Prof. Yoshihide Sekimoto as a gesture of appreciation for his valuable contribution and to mark the successful international academic collaboration.
