Assessing Water Indices for Sustainable Agriculture in Punjab
6th Asian Conference on Geography, Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi — First paper presentation

Assessed temporal and spatial changes in water availability and vegetation health in Punjab from 2000–2025 using NDVI and NDWI indices derived from Landsat 7/8 imagery. Produced district-level chloropleth maps revealing long-term groundwater depletion patterns and their impact on agricultural sustainability.

Environmental Impact of Industrial Units Using Geospatial Techniques in Delhi NCT
Independent geospatial research — Sentinel-2 & QGIS

Mapped industrial units across Delhi NCT in QGIS and assessed their environmental footprint via Sentinel-2 indices (NDVI, NDBI, NDWI). Created 500m–2000m buffer zones and applied zonal statistics, demonstrating reduced vegetation cover and elevated built-up intensity near industrial clusters.

Recommendations

What the people who have worked directly with Jannat say.

Crazy good work ethic, has always worked above and beyond on every assignment during her internship under me.
Summana A.
Content Team Lead, Devils Circuit — managed Jannat directly
She has shown exceptional leadership and organizational skills when a team of 25–30 was to be led. Only after a few months, I could rely on her solely to organize various drives at various locations around Delhi. I highly recommend her as leadership comes naturally to her.
