Biography
Dr Shiv Mohan is a leading researcher and educator with specialization in microwave remote sensing of earth and lunar surface. During his service at ISRO, he initiated research programme related to microwave remote sensing applications. He was Principal Investigator of various SAR application projects awarded to him through international global announcement of opportunity projects from European Space Agency, Japanese Exploration Agency, Italian Space Agency and NASA/DLR. These experiments resulted into development of an in-house applications program for ISRO like Joint experiment program, Disaster SAR and Satellite SAR programs. He was the main architect of India’s first RISAT utilization program where he worked as Project Director until 2011. He was also lead contributor of Chandrayaan-1 Mini SAR water ice detection model and in the definition of Chandrayaan-2 dual frequency SAR payload. After retiring from ISRO, he worked with Planetary exploration program at Physical Research Laboratory where he evolved application of dual frequency microwave data for lunar water ice model, regolith depth modeling and crater morphology. He has served as a member of 70 technical committee of ISRO including RISAT-1, Chandrayaan-2 and future Venus’s mission. He has 320 research papers in Journals, conferences, ISRO reports and conducted about 190 tutorials on microwave remote sensing. He also served as visiting scientist at DLR, Germany during 1980 and 1981 and Chief Scientist, HARSAC, Haryana Government during 1998 to 2001. He is recipient of Indian National Remote Sensing award 1995, outstanding reviewer award from Elsevier, Netherland (2015) and IEEE GRSS outstanding service award (2022). Dr Shiv Mohan is presently visiting faculty at CEPT University, Gujarat University and IEEE GRSS Liaison for Asia Pacific region.
