About me

I work as a remote-sensing analyst in Bengaluru. Most of my day is spent comparing a picture from space with what is on the ground, and I have learned that the two disagree more often than people expect, and usually for a good reason.

These letters are numbered issues. Each takes one image, a paddy, a swollen river or a lake in a dry year, and walks through it slowly, including the limits. If an image cannot answer a question, I will say so.
