Short cv:

I am studying at the Master of Science in Geomatics (Geodesy and Geoinformatics, Hydrography specialisation) Programme of the Hafencity University. The programme includes the modules such as physical oceanography, marine environment, marine geology/physics, advance hydrography and related software, underwater survey equipment, Integrated Navigation & Nautical charting, ENC/ECDIS, LIDAR, GI Science, etc.  The hydrographic survey is a profession, completely related to the marine survey, physical oceanography, and study about coastal features of the Earth. My objective is to obtain a professional qualification in Hydrography, which qualification is recognized, accepted, and valued globally. All along, I was thrilled to realize that Hydrographic Survey employs knowledge at extremely high levels in varied fields such as Science, Geosciences, Engineering, and Technology to the efficient exploration and extraction of geographical data, converting data into a navigational chart, mineral exploration, underwater studies and many more. I worked with the university on a hydrographic data analysis project of the Rhine river, this is the best example of how the university has given me a platform to apply my professional knowledge.  My previous marine experiences are the key motivation to explore the ocean more and would like to do scientific sea bottom research in the future.
