Adejoke Blessing Aransiola is an emerging academic and researcher in the field of Geoinformatics, with a strong focus on environmental sustainability and climate change. She earned her Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) degree in 2015 and her Master of Technology (M.Tech) degree in 2023, both in Remote Sensing, from the Department of Surveying and Geoinformatics, School of Environmental Technology, Federal University of Technology, Minna, Niger State, Nigeria. She is currently pursuing a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) at the same institution, where her research investigates the intersection of climate change and agriculture—specifically, the monitoring of heatwaves and their impact on agricultural productivity in North-Central Nigeria.

Dr. Joseph Olayemi Odumosu is a Nigerian-born geospatial scientist and Registered Surveyor who holds a PhD in Surveying and Geoinformatics from the Federal University of Technology, Minna. His doctoral research focused on the development of homogenised gravity datasets for gravimetric geoid modelling in Nigeria. He is currently a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Land and Spatial Science (Geomatics Division) at the Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST), Windhoek, where his research spans geodesy, photogrammetry, remote sensing, GIS, and machine learning applications for environmental monitoring and mineral resource assessment. He has authored over 40 journal articles and book chapters, and has supervised five MSc theses to completion while currently co-supervising two PhD candidates.

Dr. George Obaido is a researcher whose interests span Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Deep Learning, Explainable AI (XAI), Responsible AI, Data Science, and their applications in healthcare, education, finance, and sustainable development. His work focuses on developing interpretable, transparent, and fairness-aware AI systems for high-impact domains, including disease diagnosis, clinical decision support, financial analytics, and social good initiatives. Through his research, he seeks to advance the responsible adoption of AI by improving model explainability, mitigating bias, and promoting trustworthy decision-making in real-world applications.

Dr. Sesan Abiodun Aransiola is an accomplished environmental microbiologist, academic leader, and postdoctoral research fellow whose work sits at the critical intersection of microbial biotechnology, waste management, and artificial intelligence. Currently serving as a Lecturer in the Department of Microbiology at both the University of Abuja, Nigeria, Dr. Aransiola has built a distinguished career defined by innovative solutions for soil and water remediation, sustainable agriculture, and the bioremediation of pollutants. Dr. Aransiola earned his Bachelor of Technology (BTech), Master of Technology (MTech), and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D) in Environmental Microbiology from the Federal University of Technology, Minna, Nigeria. His broader research portfolio spans environmental health, marine resources, and the bioremediation of diverse pollutants, consistently emphasizing practical, ecologically sound interventions.
