Champion – 4th National Data Science Summit
AI Chatbot Category
This project is an AI-powered chatbot built with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) capabilities, designed to extract context-aware answers from both plain text and scanned PDF documents. By integrating meta-LLAMA 3.1 (8B, 4-bit quantized) and running it locally using Ollama, the solution demonstrates how powerful AI models can be made lightweight and accessible — without relying on cloud APIs. Awarded Champion in the AI Chatbot Category at the 4th National Data Science Summit, this project impressed judges with its ability to merge local LLM inference, OCR, and vector search into a seamless knowledge assistant.

2nd Runner-Up – NASA Space Apps Challenge 2025 (Local Round)
Data Pathways to Healthy Cities and Human Settlements
It is an AI-powered urban planning web & mobile app platform developed for the NASA Space Apps Challenge 2025 under the theme “Data Pathways to Healthy Cities and Human Settlements.” Our system integrates NASA EarthData (MODIS LST, MODIS NDVI) and WorldPop population density into an H3 hexagonal grid. By processing these datasets, CityPath identifies urban heat hotspots, evaluates green space coverage, and highlights underserved communities. We then apply AI-driven recommendations to suggest where new parks, clinics, housing, or health interventions should be prioritized. The platform provides both a web and mobile interface, featuring an interactive map with choropleths, recommendation layers, and real-time insights. An AI chat assistant allows city planners and community leaders to ask natural language questions like “Where should new clinics be built?” and instantly receive both explanations and mapped suggestions. CityPath is important because it transforms complex Earth observation data into actionable, community-focused insights. By supporting data-driven decision-making, it empowers urban planners to build healthier, more sustainable, and more resilient cities—particularly vital for rapidly growing urban areas like Dhaka.
