welcome to my website! |

This is a collection of projects that I've worked on over the last several years. My professional interests are in statistical estimation and measurement processes. This includes atmospheric state estimation, radar target tracking, and image processing.
- I've joined Robert Wilhite's winter ride series. Given the time of year that piqued my interest in morning wind, temperature, and precipitation estimates. Three hour estimates of this are easy enought to find online, since they are supplied by the National Weather Service, but I'm not aware of a source that localizes the prediction to around the 1 km level. I took the 6 hour / 12 hour NCEP predictions the night before and interpolated these quantities down to a high resolution grid for the next morning so that I would have some idea of what to expect for the ride (denoted by the red line). Note that the early times have residual interpolation error, but I think the results are roughly right by 8:00 AM.
Here are the results for one of the morning rides I attended, in m/s. Predicted wind speeds look a little higher than reality, probably being closer to 7 m/s (or 15 mph). Notice the higher windspeeds near the airport. I can vouch that this effect is real. With temperatures just above freezing -- Ouch.
- RadarCon 2012 was held in Atlanta in May, 2012. Braham Himed and I were the tutorial charis. I hope we managed to put together an excellent set of tutorials for attendees! Thanks to everyone for their excellent work!
