"The most learned of men is the one who gathers knowledge from others on his own; the most worthy of men is the most knowing and the meanest is the most ignorant."

Wind trajectory animation over Azad Jammu & Kashmir (AJK) and Punjab, Pakistan (April, 2020)
Just created this wind trajectory animation above Azad Jammu & Kashmir and Punjab in Pakistan. This wind trajectory (dated 20th April, 2020) is made using ECMWF's (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts) ERA-5 (ECMWF Reanalysis 5th) hourly wind data. A low-pressure gradient is clearly visible at the north-eastern part of Punjab province.

Uneven population distribution in selected districts of Pakistan
Here's a comparison of cumulative population (1998 & 2017) of selected districts of Pakistan. It is interesting to note that cumulative population of 2 districts (Lahore & Karachi) alone is almost equivalent to 38 districts of Pakistan (including cumulative population of area-wise largest province of Pakistan i.e. Balochistan province, 4 districts of Sindh province and 2 districts of Punjab province).
It is also interesting to note that the cumulative area of these two districts (Lahore & Karachi) is only 1.25% of cumulative area of these selected 38 districts.

Annual NDVI animation over Pakistan
Just made this interesting animation showing annual vegetative cover variation (January, 2019 - January, 2020) in Pakistan. This animation has been made in Google Earth Engine (GEE). MODIS dataset's 16-Day Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) at 1km resolution has been used to generate this animation.

Visualizing river meandering through GEE
A quick output of Lahore’s River Ravi animation demonstrating a cumulative and fading history technique in Google Earth Engine. The dataset used contains classified satellite images of the spatio-temporal distribution and change of surface water from 1984 to 2018.
