My main research interests are urban remote sensing, SDG monitoring, mapping deprived areas (e.g., slums), and analyzing urban form and dynamics with remote sensing and spatial statistics\/metrics. Presently, I am is co-chairing an international network on deprivation area mapping <a href=\"https:\/\/ideamapsnetwork.org\">IDEAMAPS<\/a>  and is presently working on two research projects related to deprivation area mapping <a href=\"http:\/\/slumap.ulb.b\">SLUMAP <\/a>and <a href=\"https:\/\/slummap.net\/index.php\/account\/\">ACCOUNT<\/a>.

In operationalizing my research, I primarily rely on earth observation-based techniques to measure variables, and geospatial analysis along with artificial intelligence to explore patterns in space and time. In the department of PGM, my major focuses are: (1) mapping urban morphology, and (2) understanding environmental risk of deprived groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:20% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"192\" height=\"209\" src=\"https:\/\/slummap.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/maxwell.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-255\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Maxwell Owusu <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was born and grew up in Ghana.
