Presenting my graduate research at our internal student research symposium

Today I had the opportunity to present my graduate research on flash flood nowcasting using low-cost GNSS receivers at our internal student research symposium. A lot of work yet to be done, but it’s nice to celebrate my progress thus far.

On the top left corner of the Raspberry Pi hat there is a little cellular antenna. Maybe the buoy doesn’t have good cell coverage wherever it is deployed.

Here is to rest and re-creation in one of the best places on earth after a reality-breaking year after hurricane Helene. I am thankful for the amazing recovery work that has been done throughout our region, and grateful to call this place home.

This was actually the basis of my high school senior project research. it’s fascinating.

Oh no, not Gork. That thing’s cursed

Trump admin to proceed with groundbreaking flash flood risk database, reversing course after media reports | CNN The Trump administration has changed course and is moving ahead with work to develop a new database that would provide Americans with precise estimates of their flash flood risk in a warming world.

NOAA is now clear to proceed with both volumes of what is known as Atlas 15, which will show people their flash flood risk now and in a warming world, through FY 2026. www.cnn.com/2025/07/18/w...

BREAKING: A catastrophic flash flood has hit in New Mexico.

The Rio Ruidoso has reportedly risen 17 feet in just 20 minutes.

I’m interested how one can implement it. I was looking into it over the weekend and I was more confused than anything. like, can you run it as a co-processor and essentially make a border router?

It breaks my heart to see these flooding events in New Mexico and Texas. If there’s anything that can motivate me more to work on my flash flood research and get equipment in the field, it’s things like this…

The Green Bank Observatory (GBO) is a vital instrument in the global #RadioAstronomy network (incl. pulsar science), and it is under threat with the proposed funding cuts.

Altium still has the edge for more advanced boards with some of the tools and integrations it has, but i agree, the majority of boards can 100% be done in KiCad. I am so grateful for tools like KiCad and the direction FreeCAD is going.

Part of my thesis research involved designing an M.2 duel-frequency GNSS card to use in my remote sensing system. Also in the pipeline is an LTE card to transmit data from the field and finishing the design/layout of the main board. Channeling my inner @gregdavill.bsky.social with these pictures.
