About

I’m Achut Parajuli, a geospatial data specialist with a focus on GIS, environmental data processing, watershed analysis and modelling, snow and glacier melt modelling, snow physics, forest snow hydrology, and climate data analysis. I hold an M.S. in Glaciology from Kathmandu University, and my work spans industries including transportation, oil and gas, water resources, and government infrastructure across Nepal, Canada, and beyond.

I thrive on turning complex data into actionable insights using ArcGIS, R, Python, and Google Earth Engine, applying machine learning and geospatial modelling to support flood risk assessment, climate risk, and resource management. I’m passionate about collaborative research and delivering impactful results in challenging environments.
