Kourosh Khoshelham is a Professor of Spatial Information and Digital Technologies in the Department of Infrastructure Engineering at the University of Melbourne, Australia, and leads research advancing digital mapping, remote sensing, and geospatial science. With an extensive publication record that spans hundreds of peer-reviewed papers, Kourosh is internationally recognised for his contributions to spatial information science, including feature extraction from satellite and sensor data, point cloud analysis, 3D geospatial modelling, and mixed reality for construction and infrastructure applications. His research has investigated a wide range of topics such as LiDAR-based sensing, autonomous navigation, semantic segmentation of urban environments, and the integration of BIM and immersive technologies to enhance visualisation and decision support. Kourosh’s work not only spans fundamental theory but also demonstrates direct application in fields such as autonomous systems, smart cities, and construction visualisation. He has a long history of leadership in interdisciplinary projects and scholarly collaborations that have advanced the understanding and practical utility of digital mapping and spatial analytics. As a professor, he also supervises postgraduate research students and contributes to teaching programs that equip students with expertise in geospatial computing, computer vision, and digital engineering methods.
