PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Road User Behavior and Road Safety Analyst
Transportation Laboratory, Polytechnique Montreal
 Collection and analysis of traffic video data to extract the trajectories for all
road users using computer vision technique.
 Automatic counts of road users at intersections.
 Development of safety and behavior analysis tool to diagnosis the safety of any
site and understand the collision processes. This tool relies on the observation of
interactions between road users without waiting for collisions to happen.

and/or satellite images rectifications using global positioning systems (GPS).
 Planimetric surveying (2D) and Topographical surveying (3D) using Total
Station instruments for built-up areas.
 Earthwork computations.
 Dilapidation survey (Pre-construction condition survey) for monitoring
buildings during water dwelling; performed at several governmental and private
buildings all over Egypt and the area of sphinx and sound and light zone, Giza
Governorate, Egypt.
