GIScience
Developing and applying framework and methods of GIScience (i.e., urban modelling, remote sensing, and spatial analysis) and spatiotemporal big data analytics (e.g., geospatial artificial intelligence, geoinformatics, and big data mining) to understand computational social science and human-environment interactions in the domain of digital health geography, human settlement, human mobility and migration, social vulnerability and inequality, human responses to climate change.
Research impacts
Since Dr Wang's PhD conferral in 2018, she has published +50 journal articles (as the leading and corresponding author in 35), four book chapters, and one media outlet. She has been working on four Australian Research Council projects and international projects with collaborators from +20 universities in the USA, UK, Canada, China, Japan, UK, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Qatar. Her publications include the Top One Journal in Human Geography Progress in Human Geography (IF 6.766, 1/84 in Human Geography), Journal of Environmental Management (IF 5.647, 6/128 in Environmental Science), Cities (IF 4.802, 7/65 in Urban Studies), Transport Policy (IF 3.382, 16/149 in Tranportation), Applied Geography (IF 3.508, 10/84 in Geography), and Environment and Planning A (IF 2.855, 12/84 in Geography).
Dr Wang is the principal investigator and co-investigator in research projects funded by the Australian Urban Research Institute and Network and Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. She was awarded as the Top 20 Global Cutting-edge Technology Young Scientist 2022; First Prize and People’s Choice in the School of Earth and Environmental Sciences Poster Competition, University of Queensland, 2015; Honour Membership in Gamma Theta Upsilon, the International Geographic Honour Society (since 2011), AAG First Prize Award (2011) and AAG Travel Fund (2011). She currently acts as the Associated Chair, Spatial Data Lab affiliated to Centre of Geographic Analysis, Harvard University; the Vice Chair of the Young Scientist Innovation Network for Digital Earth of ISDE (International Society for Digital Earth); the editorial board member of the International Journal of Digital Earth (08/2022), the guest editor in International Journal of Earth Observation and Geoinformatics, and the reviewer in 20+ international journals.
