Welcome to my homepage
I am a PhD student in the Earth Systems and GeoInformation Sciences Program in Department of Geography and GeoInformation Science at George Mason University (GMU) from Fall 2008. I obtained my M.S. degree from GMU and B.S. degree from Nanjing Normal University in China. My major research interests include spatial data quality, WebGIS, GIS modeling, data visualization, mapping and applications in population, public health, environmental science and transportation. My PhD thesis topic is about controlling and displaying data quality in demographical data mapping system. As a graduate research assistant, I have served a lot of projects in the field of mapping data quality, spatial web portal for environmental and climatic data searching, processing, analysis, and rendering.
