Dr. Gouri Sankar Bhunia is a distinguished expert in Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS), with a robust background in environmental modeling and geospatial analysis. He earned his Ph.D. from the University of Calcutta, India, in 2015, focusing his dissertation on utilizing geospatial technology for environmental control measures of infectious diseases, particularly visceral leishmaniasis (kala-azar). In 2021, he received both the Super Team Award and the Rising Star Award from KPMG Advisory Services Pvt. Ltd., acknowledging his outstanding performance, leadership, and impactful contributions to high-value advisory and technology-driven projects. Earlier in his academic career, he qualified the CBSE-UGC National Eligibility Test (NET) in December 2014 and 2015, demonstrating his academic proficiency and eligibility for lectureship and research in India. He was awarded the Senior Research Fellowship (2010–2013) by Rajendra Memorial Research Institute of Medical Sciences (RMRIMS), Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), India, recognizing his significant research contributions in public health and spatial analysis. Further highlighting his academic distinction, he secured the Silver Medal (2nd Rank) in M.Sc. in Remote Sensing and GIS from Vidyasagar University in 2009, reflecting his strong academic foundation and excellence in geospatial sciences.

Dr. Bhunia's research encompasses environmental modeling, risk assessment, natural resource mapping, and data mining through geospatial technology. He has an extensive publication record, with over 90 peer-reviewed articles and multiple book chapters. In addition to his research contributions, Dr. Bhunia has held academic positions, including serving as a visiting faculty member at a private university in West Bengal, India. He is actively involved in editorial capacities, serving as Associate Editor for the Indian Journal of Soil Conservation and as a guest editor for journals such as "Environmental Science and Pollution Research" and "Applied Water Science”. Currently, he is the editor of the Springer Nature book series "GIScience and Geo-environmental Modelling."
