Abstract
This research paper aims to establish a comprehensive metric for analysing geospatial conflicts, addressing the intricate dynamics of global instability. Through extensive research, crucial parameters are identified, ranging from overt confrontations to socioeconomic factors like unemployment and poverty. The developed metric integrates geographical aspects, including location and historical influences like animosities and land seizures, offering a holistic perspective on geospatial conflicts. Its methodology ensures a thorough examination of the influences shaping global landscapes. Serving as a crucial tool for policymakers and analysts, the metric provides a multi-dimensional framework for understanding and addressing geospatial instability. By encompassing various indicators, it enables informed decisions and targeted interventions to tackle root causes. In essence, this research contributes to a refined approach to geospatial conflict analysis, with implications for global stability and peace.
Gautham Jayan, an architect since 2020, swiftly established his firm, designing over 40 residences in two years. In 2022, he pursued urban planning studies, engaging in projects like Chavara’s development plan and Tirupur’s textile hub. Training with Srinagar Smart City Ltd, he devised a route for 100 electric buses. Gautham now focuses on his dissertation, “Framework for Formulating Geospatial Conflict Analysis Metric,” to identify and prevent conflict hotspots. His dedication to innovative design and societal challenges through urban planning marks him as a promising professional.
