About Tushaar Sapkota

I'm Tushaar Sapkota, a third-year Geomatics Engineering undergraduate at Kathmandu University, Dhulikhel. I grew up in Kushma, Parbat - a small hill town in western Nepal - where the terrain itself probably sparked my interest in spatial thinking long before I knew what GIS stood for.

My work sits at the intersection of geographic information systems, spatial analysis, and web-based mapping. I've applied AHP-based multi-criteria decision analysis to real infrastructure problems along BP Highway, and I have currently worked as a lead of Nepgeom'26 setting up the benchmark of largest departmental event with maximum number of audiences till the date.

Outside the technical side, I've held leadership positions that shaped how I work with people.As Administrator of Nepgeom'26 , We sucessfully marked the benchmark for the largest audience in any departmental events over 4000+ audiences at Acoustic night. Vice President of the KMC Literature Club, I ran events and built collaboration across the club. As Sergeant of Arms at KU LPD, I learned structured responsibility under organizational hierarchy. Both pushed me to communicate clearly and stay calm under pressure.

I believe maps are political as much as they are technical - who gets represented, whose land is recorded, and whose data is missing are questions I take seriously in my GIS work.
